the United Kingdom and Sweden witnessed a decline in emissions
, whereas
Italy and Portugal exhibited a consistent upward trend.
To begin
with, the UK experienced a reduction in emissions
from approximately 11 to 9 metric tonnes
, despite maintaining the highest emissions
levels throughout the 40-year period. Subsequently
, Sweden initially
saw an increase in CO2 emissions
from around 9 to slightly above 11 metric tonnes
over a decade before experiencing a significant decrease to about 5 metric tonnes
in 2007.
Conversely
, Italy and Portugal displayed a significant rise in emissions
during the initial years of the period under review. In 1967, Italy's emissions
per capita stood at around 4 metric tonnes
, escalating to over 8 by the end of the period. In contrast
, Portugal, which started with the lowest emissions
at under 2 metric tonnes
, still recorded relatively low emissions
levels below 6 metric tonnes
