Data on CO2 and Greenhouse Gas Emissions by Our World in Data

Description

Country-year data from "Our World in Data" on CO2 and Greenhouse gas emissions. The variables are as follows:

  • country. Name of country.

  • year. Year.

  • population. Population of country.

  • gdp. Gross domestic product (2011).

  • co2. Annual production-based emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), measured in million tonnes. This is based on territorial emissions, which do not account for emissions embedded in traded goods.

  • coal_co2. Annual production-based emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) from coal, measured in million tonnes. This is based on territorial emissions, which do not account for emissions embedded in traded goods.

  • total_ghg. Total greenhouse gas emissions including land-use change and forestry, measured in million tonnes of carbon dioxide-equivalents.

  • cumulative_co2. Cumulative production-based emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) since the first year of data availability, measured in million tonnes. This is based on territorial emissions, which do not account for emissions embedded in traded goods.

  • methane. Total methane emissions including land-use change and forestry, measured in million tonnes of carbon dioxide-equivalents.
