Only three years earlier, in 2006, China was in
second place, and until recently had been very
close to US emissions. But from 2008 to 2009,
rapid growth has matched the country’s 9-10%
growth in GDP.
Since 2000 the country’s CO2 emissions have
risen by 170.6%
US emissions are down for the second year in
succession – after almost uninterrupted year
on year increases since these records began in
1980. The decline has matched the country’s
economic woes which have seen it only just
emerge from recession.
Since 2000 the country’s CO2 emissions have
fallen by 7.5%

Latest data published by the US Energy Information Administration
provides a unique picture of economic growth – and decline.
China has sped ahead of the US, as shown by this map, which resizes
each country according to CO2 emissions. And, for the first time,
world emissions have gone down
