Energy-related CO2 emissions per capita and CO2 intensity in selected regions.
Global CO2 per-capita emissions, having fluctuated within a range from around 3.7 to 4 tonnes CO2 from the early 1970s to the early 2000s, have now pushed strongly beyond it, to 4.5 tonnes. Develope... d countries typically emit far larger amounts of CO2 per capita than the world average, but some developing economies are experiencing rapid increases (Figure 1.14). Between 1990 and 2012, China's per-capita emissions tripled, rapidly converging with the level in Europe, while India's more than doubled, though remaining well below the global average. Over the same period, per-capita emissions decreased significantly in Russia and the United States, yet remained at relatively high levels. --- Notes: Bubble area indicates total annual energy-related CO2 emissions in that region.
