World CO2 emissions
from energy
CO2 emissions by nation
CO2 emissions by nation per capita.
This data from the US EPA gives an idea of the relative industrial nation
contribution to CO2 emissions from fossil fuels.
contribution to CO2 emissions from fossil fuels.
For zero carbon emissions all CO2 sources matter.
- Fossil fuel combustion
Industry, building utilities, transport
Cement manufacture
- Deforestation (Livestock food production)
- Food production/agriculture (disturbing soil releases CO2)
- Carbon feed backs (caused by global warming)

Carbon dioxide emissions by national quantities
Industrial scale deforestation is a major source of carbon dioxide.
Most of the deforestation goes towards the raising of livestock.
This makes industrial food production a major source of carbon dioxide and methane.
