In developing countries like India, per-capita greenhouse gas (GHS) emission was around a seventh of US data and less than half the world average (~7.0 tons CO2 equivalent) in 2015. A recent study about CO2 emission in India indicates a sharp rise in CO2 emission per capita and a rise in the contribution of share in the world’s CO2 emission observed. It indicates the recent fast growth in fossil fuel consumption and production of building materials without considering its impact on the environment. It observed that most of the time industries do not follow the norms of government, which may be paid by human civilization in various forms, like global warming and climate change. The other world countries’ per capita CO2 emissions are much higher than India’s, but the total emissions are alarming due to India’s large population. A study published in Worldometer in 2016 indicates that India ranked third after China and the United States of America (USA) in the total emission of CO2 in the atmosphere. India was ranked fifth in the German Watch Global Climate Risk Index 2019 out of 181 countries.

摘要

In developing countries like India, per-capita greenhouse gas (GHS) emission was around a seventh of US data and less than half the world average (~7.0 tons CO2 equivalent) in 2015. A recent study about CO2 emission in India indicates a sharp rise in CO2 emission per capita and a rise in the contribution of share in the world’s CO2 emission observed. It indicates the recent fast growth in fossil fuel consumption and production of building materials without considering its impact on the environment. It observed that most of the time industries do not follow the norms of government, which may be paid by human civilization in various forms, like global warming and climate change. The other world countries’ per capita CO2 emissions are much higher than India’s, but the total emissions are alarming due to India’s large population. A study published in Worldometer in 2016 indicates that India ranked third after China and the United States of America (USA) in the total emission of CO2 in the atmosphere. India was ranked fifth in the German Watch Global Climate Risk Index 2019 out of 181 countries.
