Final answer:

Residents of countries with high per capita resource consumption and waste emission have the largest ecological footprint.

Step-by-step explanation:

The largest per capita ecological footprint would most likely be that of a resident of a country with high resource consumption and waste emission. Countries such as Qatar, Kuwait, and the United Arab Emirates are examples of smaller, oil-producing countries with high per capita ecological footprints. Other heavily populated and affluent countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia also have high per capita ecological footprints. These countries emit significantly more CO₂ compared to the poorest countries.
