      The top 5 China, USA, India, EU and Russia emit a combined 64% of global emissions. The top 10 emitters adding Japan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia(,Germany but it is part of the EU) and South Korea are at 74%. https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-share-of-co2-emissions?tab=table

      Of the lot only the USA has actually put in a contribution and well it then left the Paris Climate Agreement. So nobody really did.

    As a starting point, the burning of fossil fuels, and to a lesser extent deforestation and release of methane are responsible for the warming in recent decades: Graph of temperature as observed with significant warming, and simulated without added greenhouse gases and other anthropogentic changes, which shows no significant warming

    How much each change to the atmosphere has warmed the world: IPCC AR6 Figure 2 - Thee bar charts: first chart: how much each gas has warmed the world.  About 1C of total warming.  Second chart:  about 1.5C of total warming from well-mixed greenhouse gases, offset by 0.4C of cooling from aerosols and negligible influence from changes to solar output, volcanoes, and internal variability.  Third chart: about 1.25C of warming from CO2, 0.5C from methane, and a bunch more in small quantities from other gases.  About 0.5C of cooling with large error bars from SO2.

    Recommended actions to cut greenhouse gas emissions in the near future:

    Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
