carbon dioxide emissions produced wx1b3
The chart explains the amount of carbon dioxide emissions produced per person in several countries in Europe: United Kingdom, Sweden, Italy, and Portugal for 40 years, starting from 1967.
In Italy and Portugal, the number was continuously increasing, Italy’s CO2 emission almost doubled from around 4 to 8 metric tonnes for 30 years, then it was steady from 1997 to 2007. Portugal, having the same trend as Italy, rose dramatically from 1 to 5 metric tonnes.
On the other hand, Sweden’s CO2 emission fluctuated. It rose and peaked in 1977 at 10 metric tons, but then it was constantly declining until it reached 5 metric tons, same as Portugal in 2007.
Meanwhile, in the UK, the trend of CO2 emission was gradually decreasing, in 1967, the average was 11 metric tons, and in 2007 it was around 9 metric tons. Even though the UK trend was the one that progressively reduced, it was still the highest average CO2 emission in 2007 compared to other countries.
