global and human emissions of greenhouse gases

Quick summary of anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions: time evolution since 40 years, nature of gases and source of emissions. According to IPCC 2007.

I do not know if the permafrost methane hydrates are included ... or why the CO2 peat is included ...

Apparently, China is issuing even more than they are announcing:

CO2: China had forgotten 1,4 billion tons

China's carbon emissions could be 20% higher than previously believed, according to a new analysis of official Chinese data, suggesting that global climate change could be even faster than 'it is predicted for the moment.

Remarkable infos, which one could suspect, given the past lies of the dictatorial communist systems that persist in China.

The error may be much greater, given the unknown extent of official lies.

In this case, it can not be said that the Chinese authorities deliberately cheated. Indeed, the Chinese and English researchers who conducted the study are arrived at this figure by summing the fossil fuel consumption data in each of the thirty Chinese regions and comparing them with national statistics. These data are public and it is by analyzing them that they found an abyss between the two. The gap has always existed in this area, but it has grown steadily since 2004. "Actual emissions may be more important than current estimates or perhaps less," says Figaro Zhu Liu of the Shenyang Institute of Applied Ecology. Our work shows above all that in the future uncertainty could be the biggest handicap to fight against global warming. "


Only CO2 ppb in our air do not lie !!

Still a form of negationists realities !!


There are 3 millions of years with this same current CO2, the seas were 20 m higher and the 3 earth at 5 ° C warmer, so no need for simulations to be convinced of the real risks.

Published by the US Energy Information Administration ...

It is indeed very useful, to show how the country which represents half of the global GDP, tries to make believe that it is in the second place!

Notwithstanding the fact that I do not believe in these figures, I note in passing that in addition: what Americans consume in consumer products from China (and elsewhere), should be taken into account in the assessment of pollution US (same for Europe, etc.)

All according to the principle of the consumer-payer.

you are probably a little bit right and wrong ...

US GDP is largely generated by financial activities. Whereas the Chinese GDP is based more on the sale of manufacturing products ... in the USA in particular, which also exploits them for the local GDP.

So for sure, there is distortion. But no graph is perfect.

What matters is the CO2 per capita (with that consumed in other countries, so that he lives), then the Ricans beat all the records !!
And the Chinese are still very frugal !!!

yes, absolutely in CO2 / inhabitant, the USA is the 1 number by far.

this account of CO2 by country is absurd!

the more we close our factory the less we produce CO2 ... and we have it produced by China that we accuse of pollution

when we close modern and economical factories in France, and we buy the same thing from archaic factory at the other end of the world ... with the waste of transport and more

if we want to reduce polution we have to produce cleanly at home ... if we do not do it, we do not even need to talk about it any more, let anything to those who buy us and do not do not complain about the result
