By how many degrees a country has warmed the planet with its CO2 emissions.
The ranking uses the latest available value for each country. For all of them that is 2024.
Top-20 · °C
The scale does not start at zero — the values lie in a narrow range, and starting from zero the bars would be indistinguishable. The axis ticks are labeled.

An estimate of how much the cumulative CO2 emissions of a country have contributed to the observed rise in the mean temperature of the planet, in degrees Celsius. This is the most direct answer to the question of who warmed the planet by how much: the calculation converts emissions into a temperature change through a climate model, bypassing intermediate quantities such as concentration. Contributions are additive — the sum over all countries is the warming caused by carbon dioxide.
Important: From CO2 only: the contribution of methane and nitrous oxide is not part of this series, so the sum falls short of the full warming observed. The estimate is model-based, carrying the uncertainty of climate sensitivity itself.
What part of all emissions since the start of the industrial era a country produced.
Emissions 1750–2024 Cumulative CO2 emissionsA country's total emissions over the whole record — since 1750.
Environment 1990–2015 Population below five meters above sea levelWhat share of the population lives less than five meters above sea level.
Emissions 1750–2024 CO2 emissionsAnnual carbon dioxide emissions from burning fuel and producing cement.
Emissions 1750–2024 CO2 emissions per capitaHow many tonnes of carbon dioxide each resident of a country accounts for in a year.
Emissions 1990–2023 Consumption-based CO2 emissionsEmissions adjusted for trade: the carbon brought in with imported goods is counted.
