Who are the main contributors to the enhanced greenhouse effect?
Carbon emissions 2000
Carbon …. Look at next slide too to help you understand changes.
Methane ….
Overall ….
Label these on your world map ‘Greenhouse Gas Emitters’
Also add notes/facts from Digby P. 33 from the map, the ‘+’ and the text.
[You may wish to do this in rough at school and then print off in colour at home and then neaten up.]
Methane and nitrous gas
Greenhouse gases

4. Which countries decrease in emissions?
Carbon Emissions 1980
Which countries increase in emissions?
Carbon Emissions 2000
WHY IS THIS?

5. A Map showing the size of countries in proportion to how much CO2 they emit
Pearson P. 36
Just in case you need some help with names!!!!!!!!!!!!!

6. Carbon dioxide emissions around the world

7. The relationship between population size of a country and their carbon dioxide emissions

8. Conclusion Who are the biggest polluters?
Where are the smallest polluters found?
Explain why people in the developing world produce only small amounts of greenhouse gases. Think about their lifestyles and activities compared to the developed world.
Now look at the following slide.
Write a short analysis of what you can see.
What are the strengths and weaknesses of mapping data in the way that the does?
