Per Capita Greenhouse Gas
This is a list of countries by total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions per capita by year. It provides data based on a production-based accounting of emissions of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, perfluorocarbon, hydrofluorocarbon, and sulfur hexafluoride (meaning emissions within the territory of the given country), compiled by the World Resources Institute and divided by the population estimate by the United Nations (for July 1) of the same year. The emissions data do not include land-use change and forestry (LULUCF), nor emissions from the consumption of imported goods. All countries which are party to the Paris Agreement report their greenhouse gas inventories at least biennially from 2024. World total emissions are estimated to be about 50 billion tonnes a year (including LULUCF), which divided by world population is about 6 and a half tonnes per person per year. In order to meet the Paris Agreement goal of under 1.5°C rise by 2050, average per person emissions wo ...
