Carbon dioxide emissions per capita refers to the average amount of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emitted by an individual in a specific country or region over a given period, typically measured annually. It is calculated by dividing the total CO₂ emissions of a country by its population. The result is expressed in metric tons of CO₂ per person per year. CO₂ Emissions Per Capita= (Total CO₂ Emissions / Population). Total CO₂ Emissions: The total amount of carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere by human activities within a country. This includes emissions from burning fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas), industrial processes, and deforestation. Population: The total number of people living in the country or region.
