How this figure is calculated
The year-on-year percentage change in Co2 emissions vs gdp. Computed from consecutive annual observations; years either side of a gap are skipped rather than bridged.
Computed from
- CO₂ emissions per capita vs. GDP per capita Global Carbon Budget (2025); Population based on various sources (2024) – with major processing by Our World in Data
Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
