Summary

Description
English: This bar graph shows the carbon intensity of gross domestic product (GDP) for different regions between the years 1982 and 2011. Carbon intensity of GDP is defined as annual carbon dioxide emissions divided by annual GDP. Carbon dioxide emissions are measured in kilograms. GDP is measured in US dollars (year 2005 values) using purchasing power parities (PPP). The regions are: Africa, Asia and Oceania, Central and South America, Eurasia, Europe, the Middle East, North America, and the world. These regional groupings are defined in a later section.

Three carbon intensity values are given for each region, which are averaged over the years 1982 to 1991, 1992 to 2001, and 2002 to 2011. Data are given in a later section. Intensities show variations regionally and over time. Global carbon intensity has, on average, fallen over this time period.

Data

"International data for carbon dioxide emissions from the consumption of energy include emissions due to the consumption of petroleum, natural gas, and coal, and also from natural gas flaring [...] [These data] do not include emissions from geothermal power generation, cement production and other industrial process, or municipal solid waste combustion." - Notes for International Energy Statistics (archived 4 July 2014).
