Infographic illustration depicting carbon emissions per-capita by country. Width corresponds to population, height corresponds with CO2 emissions per capita. China is the most populous nation yet the amount of carbon emissions per person (7.1 tonnes) is lower than the USA (14.4 tonnes). The massive emissions mainly through gas flaring in oil-producing countries like Bahrain, Oman, Kuwait and UAE (categorised under Middle East A) results in their very high per-capita CO2 emissions despite their small populations. | |
