IBRD only vs South Korea: Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions excluding LULUCF per capita
Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions excluding LULUCF per capita over time
- IBRD only
- South Korea
How they compare
South Korea currently reports 11.36 t CO2e/capita against 5.17 t CO2e/capita in IBRD only, a difference of 6.19 t CO2e/capita.
That makes South Korea's figure about 2.2 times IBRD only's.
The two have swapped places 1 time across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was IBRD only ahead.
IBRD only ranks 14th and South Korea ranks 17th of 45 groups.
South Korea has averaged higher in every one of the 6 decades both report.

About this data
Total annual emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from the agriculture, energy, waste, and industrial sectors, excluding LULUCF, standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values divided by the economy's population. This measure excludes GHG fluxes caused by Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF), as these fluxes have larger uncertainties.
