The line diagram compares the amount of
carbon
dioxide emitted per individual in the 4 different nations during a period of 4 decades from 1967. Overall
, it can be seen that the United Kingdom
and Sweden
increased slightly, while
the other two countries with the lowest amount per citizen still increased, During this
period the United Kingdom
still had higher emissions
than other countries.
In 1967, the UK discharged more than 10 tonnes
of carbon
dioxide, which was approximately 2 metric tonnes
more than the corresponding figure for the latter (around 9 metric tonnes
). By contrast
, Sweden
increased to nearly the United Kingdom
of means carbon
dioxide emissions
in 1977(nearly 10.1 metric tonnes
) then
they underwent a great change after one year, decreasing to under 6 metric tonnes
, and the United Kingdom
fell down until 2007( around 9 metric tonnes
).
for Italy and Portugal were roughly 4.1 metric tonnes
and less than 2 metric tonnes
of individual carbon
emissions
respectively in 1967. During this
time, Italy rapidly increased to approximately 6.5 metric tonnes
breaking Sweden
's personal carbon
emissions
, and Portugal increased to about 5 metric tonnes
in 2007 from about 1.5 metric tonnes
in 1967 and the figure reached parity with the 2007 Sweden
figure.Submitted by ur790609922 on
