Greece – per capita Fossil CO2 Emissions and Climate Debt
2020
The current Climate Breakdown Pricing of Greece amounts to $12.76 per tons Fossil CO2 emitted since 2000. The Climate Debt grew from $1,256 per capita in 2015 to $1,929 in 2020. Updated Rankings of 165 countries are available in the menu “Climate Debt”.
The following diagrams expose the trends of Fossil CO2 Emissions, Climate Debt, GDP(ppp-$) and Ecological Footprint without carbon.
The first diagram shows the Fossil CO2 Emissions per capita annually between 2000 and 2018. The green bars show the Free Emissions Level. The gap between the green and the black line is the calculation bases of the Climate Debt.
The second diagram shows Fossil CO2 Emissions in tons per capita in decades. Again, the green bars show the Free Emission Level. The grey bars are World Fossil CO2 Emissions average.
The third diagram shows the Climate Debt as ‘Share of global Climate Debt‘ in 2010, 2015 and 2020, of Greece, Turkey and Italy.
The fourth diagram shows the ‘per capita Climate Debt‘ trends between 2010 and 2020, with World average set at 1, of Greece, Turkey, Italy, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Bulgaria.
The next diagram shows per capita GDP(ppp-$) of the same six countries and World average.
The last diagram shows the relative per capita Ecological Footprint without the carbon footprint of Greece, Turkey and Italy, with an average country among 181 set at 100. Note that data is around three years prior to the specified years.
