Description

This video shows Top 10 Country Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emission History (1965-2020). United States contributed to almost 1/3 of the entire world's CO2 emissions in the 1960s but China and India started catching up in the early 2000.

Despite long-standing warnings of a climate emergency as well as efforts by some nations to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, the worldwide use of fossil fuels – and with it global greenhouse gas emissions – grew last year.

A number of potential disaster scenarios caused by climate change remain well documented. And yet, increasing demand for coal, oil, and natural gas drove the increase in GHG emissions, according to the International Energy Agency.

To determine the countries emitting the most CO2, 24/7 Wall St. ranked countries based on territorial emissions – millions of metric tons of carbon emitted from fossil fuels and cement production within a country's borders – in 2017 published by the Global Carbon Project 2018. This report and our analysis focuses only on fossil fuel-generated CO2 emissions, the single most important greenhouse gas and by far the largest contributor to anthropogenic warming.
10. Canada
Out of the 25 top CO2 emitters, Canada has close to the highest per capita carbon emission rate at 15.6 metric tons.

9. South Korea
South Korea is responsible for 1.7% of the global carbon output, though South Koreans make up only 0.7% of the global population.

8. Saudi Arabia
Between 1992 and 2017, the population and economy of Saudi Arabia nearly doubled. With this phenomenal growth came phenomenal CO2 emissions growth of 122.8% over thE 25 year period.

7. Iran
Like Saudi Arabia, Iran's population growth was fast, at nearly 40%, and in its GDP more than doubled from 1992 to 2017. This growth was accompanied by a similar increase in CO2 emissions.

6. Germany
Germany is showing progress in carbon reduction, having lowered its output by over 17% between 1992 and 2016. The country also has the most aggressive plan for further reductions than any other EU nation.


5. Japan
Japan's CO2 emissions peaked in the three years following the 2011 Fukushima nuclear disaster, reaching 1,314 million metric tons of CO2 in 2013.

4. Russian Federation
Coal remains one of the world's largest sources of energy production. Approximately 40% of electricity produced worldwide came from coal sources in 2015.

3. India
As is generally the case in the countries emitting the most CO2, a small group of companies accounts for a huge portion of emissions in India. Notably, state-owned Coal India alone emitted the equivalent of just over 1 billion metric tons of CO2 in 2015, or 2.4% of global industrial greenhouse gas emissions.

2. USA
The United States was the world's largest national CO2 emitter until 2006, when China surpassed U.S. emissions that year of 6,019 million metric tons of CO2. And while U.S. emissions have declined since, China's emissions have steadily increased.

1. China
With the world's largest population and for decades one of the fastest growing economies, China is far and away the world's top CO2 emitter. Close to 10,000 million metric tons of CO2 from burning fossil fuel were emitted by the superpower in 2017. On a per capita basis, China's CO2 emissions of 7.1 metric tons per person trail that of most countries on this list but still rank in the top 50 worldwide.

Driving China's CO2 emissions is the nation's massive coal production. China's generation of electricity from coal has dropped slightly from 75% in 1992 to 70% in 2015. Still, overall coal production has tripled since 2000 to nearly 4,000 million metric tons – approximately half of all global coal production.
