World's Worst CO2 Emitting Countries From 1990 - 2024 | Green Houses Gases | Carbon Foot Print

CO2 emissions vary significantly by country, influenced by factors like industrial activity, energy sources, and population size.
Key points about CO2 emissions by countries:
China: The largest emitter, contributing over 25% of global CO2 emissions. This is due to its large population and heavy reliance on coal for energy.
United States: The second-largest emitter, responsible for about 15% of global emissions. The U.S. has high per capita emissions due to its energy-intensive lifestyle and industrial activities.
India: The third-largest emitter, accounting for around 7% of global emissions. India's emissions are growing rapidly due to its developing economy and increasing energy demand.
European Union: Collectively, the EU countries contribute around 9% of global CO2 emissions. Efforts are being made to reduce emissions through renewable energy and efficiency measures.
Russia: A significant emitter, largely due to its extensive use of fossil fuels for energy production and export.
Japan: Another major emitter, with a strong industrial base and significant energy consumption.

And the US is producing all their crap in china

[@tosa2522]

Just like many other countries.

[@minxythemerciless]

now do this per head of population and per GDP

[@RareTricks]

Sure we are planning for it very soon...Thanks for the heads up..

Nice to see how Germany's CO₂ emissions are steadily decreasing. However, it is a good sign that the economy has grown despite this. Unfortunately, emissions have only shifted to China and India.

[@kirito5547]

So you want to say that only europe and other western nations have the right to abuse fossil fuel? As to why germany has lower emissions and countries like India( I won't say china because they have enough money now) don't have enough money to invest in renewable energy. But western countries have the money because they abused fossil fuels as much as they wanted.

[@kirito5547]

Also if you look at per capita emissions, german emissions are 5 times more than india.

​@@kirito5547 Yes Per capita leaders are West & European countries. More than even China. On this basis, India is at the bottom of this list. WAIT THAT'S NOT ALL. "CUMULATIVE PER CAPITA" : This is sum total of all emissions in last 30-40 Years divided by population. This is where US & EU not only top list and India at bottom of list, but US is 50-80 times (5000%- 8000% more) than India. EU is 30-40 times (3000%-4000% more) then India. But they indicate selective silly current annual (that too total & not per capita) to lie to common citizens. Statistics can lie also -in this case, West is deliberately nitpicking a very specific irrelevant metric to escape from it's obligations and dirty hand and instead push it to the emerging nations like India , which both historically and into the far future (thanks to their commitment and significant investments into renewables) will remain a miniscule 2-3% of the emissions of each of US & EU. Current climate rankings should be " India >> China > ....> US/ EU ".

[@kanakTheGold]

Crazy that India is ONLY 4x emissions than Germany, while having a population 17x times that of Germany ! EU & US suck on annual emissions. They suck even more on Cumulative emissions (since the 18th century Industrial age).

[@rabbaniazzahra1784]

percapita wise, the US is still the worst emmiter

[@RareTricks]

We will make a video of GDP based soon...

Crazy there wasn't even a dip for when we all had to stay home.
We need more protectionism, so we can control this in our own borders.
Everyone's just passing the buck, like the population will not notice.

[@ElenarMT]

Sure makes me glad the UK has done away with plastic bags for shopping - causing my injured back more agony. "Doing our bit for the environment"... :|

[@ReiEvangelista]

Congrats?

[@mutyalammapalemps892]

More pollution more development
India needs to develop , every report states india is very poor
