Nice graphic but isn't it a tautology.

More prosperous countries are:
more developed,
use more carbon, and
have lower mortality.

Use of nuclear fuel, infection rates, and daily incomes would all give one of these graphs or the other. All correlate to prosperity or lack of it.

From the OP: "The top panel shows contributions to global warming and the bottom panel shows mortality from "climate sensitive" heath effects. Compare what the US is "giving" to what Africa is "receiving.""
