Global per capita carbon dioxide emissions averaged 4.7 metric tons in 2023. This represented a slight increase in comparison to the previous year. Qatar has the largest per capita CO₂ emissions worldwide, at more than 37 metric tons per person.

The average for 2023 based on 7 countries was 8.07 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita. The highest value was in Canada: 14.35 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita and the lowest value was in France: 4.14 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita. The indicator is available from 1970 to 2023. Below is a chart for all countries where data are available.

Over the past two decades, many developing countries have experienced significant growth in per capita emissions. This is particularly the case in Asia. Fueled by rapid industrialization, per capita emissions in Vietnam have increased by almost 400 percent since 2000. Per capita emissions in China, India, and Indonesia have also increased substantially during this period. In comparison, per capita emissions in developed countries such as the United Kingdom have halved since 2000. Per capita emissions The growth in per capita emissions in China has coincided with the country becoming the world’s biggest emitter. However, despite the vast amounts of carbon dioxide China releases every year, its per capita emissions are far lower than in many other countries, at just eight metric tons per person. In comparison, the average American produces nearly 15 metric tons of carbon dioxide a year. This is three times higher than the average per capita emissions worldwide. Emissions in oil producing countries Per capita emissions are noticeably higher in oil producing countries. In the Middle East region, Qatar and Kuwait average more than 25 metric tons of CO₂ per inhabitant. People in more populous oil producing countries, such as Canada and Australia, average roughly 15 metric tons of carbon dioxide a year.

The average for 2023 based on 189 countries was 4.76 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita. The highest value was in Palau: 81.21 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita and the lowest value was in Micronesia: 0 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per capita.

Saudi Arabia is the largest per capita emitter of fossil carbon dioxide (CO₂) among G20 countries. In 2023, emissions in the Middle Eastern country amounted to just over ** metric tons per person (tCO₂/cap). Meanwhile, India had the lowest per capita CO₂ emissions, at around *** tCO₂/cap.

Population vs emissions Despite being the most populated G20 country, India has the lowest per capita CO₂ emissions of them all. This is mainly due to India’s economy being largely agrarian. Additionally, per capita energy consumption in the South Asian country is relatively low compared to many developed nations. On the other hand, Canada, which has a small population size of roughly ** million, had the second-largest emissions per capita in the G20. The North American country’s oil and gas industry is a key factor for this. Emissions from oil and gas production Other major oil and gas producers, such as Saudi Arabia, the U.S., and Russia, are also among the biggest per capita emitters globally. Russia alone accounted for nearly a ******* of global GHG emissions from oil and gas production in 2022, while the U.S. contributed almost ** percent.

Qatar had the highest per capita carbon dioxide emissions worldwide in 2023, at 42.6 metric tons per person. Per capita emissions in Qatar have remained relatively stable in recent years, but have fallen notably since the mid-2000s.In 1985, the tiny Dutch Caribbean island of Curaçao had the highest CO₂ emissions per capita in the world, at 90 metric tons, but by 2020, this figure had fallen to just 10 metric tons per person. Greenhouse gas emissions worldwide Several of the Middle East’s largest oil producing countries, including Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia, are among the world’s largest per capita CO₂ emitters. Per capita emissions in Saudi Arabia have experienced a growth of roughly 75 percent since 1990. Canada is another major oil producing country with high CO₂ emissions per capita. Rising emissions Global greenhouse gas emissions have been on the rise since the industrial revolution began approximately 200 years ago. However, over the past 50 years CO₂ emissions have skyrocketed, and are projected to have reached a new record high in 2024.

Qatar has the highest per capita carbon dioxide emissions worldwide, at **** metric tons per person. Many countries in the Middle East had high levels emissions, especially when compared to countries in Africa. Greenhouse gas emissions worldwide Some of the Middle East’s largest oil producing countries, including Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia are among the world’s largest carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitters per capita. Countries such as the United States, Australia and Canada also show disproportionately high levels of emission per inhabitant. Despite a relatively low population for its size, Canada’s CO₂ emissions have recently surpassed *** million metric tons, and the country is now amongst the largest producers of CO₂ emissions worldwide. Rising emissions Global greenhouse gas emissions have been on the rise since the industrial revolution began approximately 200 years ago. Over the past half-century CO₂ emissions have skyrocketed, and climbed to a record high in recent years. Yet, emissions fell considerably in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused disruptions to transportation and industrial activities.

Global carbon dioxide emissions per capita increased from 4.18 tonnes in 1990 to 4.5 tonnes in 2022, with significant regional variations. East Asia & Pacific saw the most substantial rise, tripling its emissions due to rapid industrialization, while Europe & Central Asia (excluding high-income countries) experienced a decline. South Asia’s emissions grew significantly, reflecting economic growth, while Sub-Saharan Africa maintained the lowest levels throughout. Global events like the 2008 financial crisis and the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic temporarily lowered emissions, but quick rebounds followed. Despite growing awareness of climate change, progress in reducing emissions has been limited, particularly in developing regions. Balancing economic growth with sustainability remains a global challenge in addressing climate change.
