Fossil Fuel CO 2 Emissions (Production and Consumption) Peters et al. 2011, Nature CC

CO 2 Emissions by Fossil Fuel Type Updated from Le Quéré et al. 2009, Nature Geoscience; Data: Boden, Marland, Andres-CDIAC 2011 Time (y) Oil 34% Coal 41% Gas Cement CO 2 emissions (PgC y -1 )

USA has produced ~30% of total cumulative anthropogenic CO 2 emissions since 1900 with only 4.5% of the global population! Combustion: Fuel + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water Vapour + Heat
