Leo is committing a fallacy called a red herring, which is a device in an argument that detracts the opponent from relevant issue. By saying that Scandinavian countries produce less carbon emissions than the US, he's either deliberately or inadvertently distracting Annie away from the fact that whether or not Scandinavian countries produce emissions matter, what matters in this context is that the US will receive less economical benefits from decreasing carbon emissions. By mentioning the state of Scandinavian countries, he pulling her away from the main topic at hand: effects of decrease of carbon emissions on the economy of the US alone.

Cities tend to require very ________ inputs of energy and materials resulting in ________ outputs of waste.
gladu [14]

Answer:

Modern cities require much more energy because of the increase in population resulting in the demand for inputs of energy and materials to be particularly high. But because this relationship to waste output is inversely proportional, there will also be large outputs of waste. Cities need to place a waste management system in their towns in order to combat this unsustainable way of living,
