The graph below shows average carbon dioxide (C02) emissions per person in the United Kingdom, Sweden, Italy and Portugal between 1967 and 2007. Summarise the Information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant

The graph shows the changes in the emissions of carbon dioxide in 4 European countries from 1967 to 2007. The production of carbon dioxide in Portugal and Italy were steadily increasing. In 1967 the emission in Portugal was approximately 1 metric tonnes (mt) and it increased steadily to 5 mt in 1997 before slowing down in the final year. Italy started at 4 mt and rose gradually overtaking Sweden in 1987 to reach just below 8 mt in 1997. However, it then remained unchanged until 2007. Carbon dioxide emissions in United Kingdom and Sweden decreased during the same period. United Kingdom had the highest emission over the period starting at 11 mt but the number kept decreasing and reached 9 mt in 2007. In Sweden, initially there was an increase from 8 to 11 mt, but then the emission dropped sharply until the end of the period and reached the same level as Portugal (5 mt). In summary, while emissions in Italy and Portugal grew, UK and Sweden saw an opposite trend. However, UK remained the biggest producer of carbon dioxide over the period.
