Countries by carbon dioxide emissions via the burning of fossil fuels (blue the highest).

This is a list of sovereign states and territories by carbon dioxide emissions due to
human activity. The data presented below corresponds to emissions in 2007. The data
itself were collected in 2008 by the CDIAC for the United Nations. The data consider
only carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels and cement manufacture,
but not emissions from land use such as deforestation. The top 10 countries in the world
emit 67.07% of the world total.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Other powerful greenhouse gases are not
included in this data, including methane.

Some dependencies and territories whose independence has not been generally
recognized are also included, as they are in source data. Certain entities are mentioned
here for purposes of comparison. These are indicated in italics and are not counted in the
ordering of sovereign states. (See also: carbon cycle) On 6 October 2009, the
International Energy Agency released its own data set (calculated using slightly different
methods than CDIAC) for 2007 emissions that listed about 140 countries.[7]
