So when GHG absorbs energy from the sun, it's on a per capita basis?

No, but when talking about whether a country is emitting more than its "fair" share of GHG for any reasonable definition of "fair" per capita is what matters, unless someone can make a convincing argument that some people have some kind of natural or divine right to contribute more to GHG emissions than others.

More details are in this comment [1].

Why didn't you include England's total historical contributions to GHG emissions and technologies in your comparison then?
