Global average temperatures have increased by more than 1℃ since pre-industrial.
CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere are now well over 400ppm – their highest levels in over 800,000 years.
Globally we emit over 36 billion tonnes of CO2 per year – this continues to increase.
There are large differences – more than 100-fold – in per capita CO2 emissions between countries.
Today, China is the world’s largest CO2 emitter – accounting for more than one-quarter of emissions. This is followed by the USA (15%); EU-28 (10%); India (7%); and Russia (5%).
The USA has contributed most to global CO2 emissions to date, accounting for 25% of cumulative emissions. This is followed by the EU-28 (22%); China (13%); Russia (6%) and Japan (4%).
