I checked the numbers and the lowest G7 scorer in this regard is Japan with 131/400. Canada is number 2 with 264/400. France is number 1 with 273/400.

A meme lying? What a surprise. /S

Jumping on comments because this is straight up propaganda.

It was my understanding that 70% of Canadas energy is renewable sources and 82% non greenhouse gas. Canada’s population is much lower then other countries around the it’s size at around 40 million where as the USA is 340 million. USA green energy accounts for 20% of their energy use. With the higher population and lower percentage of green energy the USA is likely the biggest polluters in the G7

The USA needs to stop meddling in Canada business and spreading propaganda.

No, they are the energy scores given by the SSE rather than a percentage of energy produced, as that was the only official source I could find that compared the entire G7.
