The line graph compares the average
carbon
emissions per capita in four European countries namely the United
Kingdom
,
Sweden
, Italy, and Portugal between 1967 and 2007, measured in metric tonnes.
Overall
, the United
Kingdom
had the highest statistic from time to time
although
it gradually declined.
In contrast
, Portugal had the lowest radiation but dramatically rose in four decades. The United
Kingdom
initially
reported approximately 11
million
metric tonnes of
carbon
releases in 1967.
However
, starting from 1987, the figure consistently decreased to under 10
million
and landed at around 9
million
by the end of the reporting period. Other than the United
Kingdom
,
Sweden
also
had a diminishing trend with the exception of a spike in 1977 which reached beyond 10
million
.
Nevertheless
,
Sweden
's emissions continued to fall until below 6
million
in 2007.
On the other hand
, Italy's
carbon
pollution moderately increased from age to age. It started lower than
Sweden
's at barely above 4
million
in 1967 but ended up higher in a higher number at almost 8
million
in 40 years.
Lastly
, Portugal with the lowest releases in all years ironically had the highest jump. It released under 2
million
carbon
dioxide discharges by the beginning of the period but managed to triple the number in four decades, reaching the same point as
Sweden
in 2007.
