Technical Notes
"Definition:"
"Carbon dioxide emissions per capita is defined as the the total amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emitted, on average, for each person living in a specified country. Data include CO2 released from the burning of all fossil fuels in a particular country or region. Fossil fuels include coal and coal products, oil, and natural gas. CO2 emissions from land use change, biomass fuels, and cement manufacture are not included here. Data are reported here in metric tons (tonnes) of carbon dioxide per person.  "
""
"Total emissions are calculated based on the total supply of fossil fuels in a country--the ""reference approach.""  These data correspond to International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Source/Sink Category 1 A; see below in the methodology section for more information on the IPCC greenhouse gas accounting methodology."
""
"Years Covered and Frequency of Update:"
"Data are available here for the years 1990, 2000 and 2003. However, data sourced from the International Energy Agency (IEA) span 1960-2004 for countries that are members of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and for OECD non-members typically span 1971 to 2004, although coverage varies. The IEA updates carbon dioxide emissions data annually, often revising data from earlier years."
""
"Methodology:"
"The World Resources Institute calculates per capita CO2 emissions with CO2 data from the IEA and population data from the United Nations Population Division. A more complete description of total population can be found at http://earthtrends.wri.org/searchable_db/variablenotes.cfm?varid=363&theme=4."
""
"Total CO2 emissions are calculated from the IEA's Energy Balance data using the methods and emissions factors from the Revised 1996 IPCC Guidelines for National Greenhouse Gas Inventories (Guidelines). More information on IEA's Energy Balances can be found at  http://data.iea.org/stats/codebook/co2doc.html."
""
"The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) allows countries to use either the reference approach or the sectoral approach when reporting their CO2 emissions. The emissions shown here use the reference approach, which uses data on a country's total energy supply and captures refining, flaring, and other ""fugitive emissions"" that do not result directly from end-use fossil fuel combustion. In contrast, the sectoral approach estimates emissions based on the combustion rather than the supply of fossil fuels."
""
"The reference approach accounts for the carbon in all fossil fuels supplied to the economy. Apparent consumption of fuels is calculated as production minus exports plus imports. Net stock changes are either added or subtracted. Emissions from international marine and aviation bunkers (fuels used for international transport) are subtracted from national totals, as these figures are accounted for separately. Imports and exports of both primary and secondary fuels are included in the calculations."
""
"A portion of all fossil fuels is used as a feedstock for a non-energy use such as plastics manufacture or bitumen for road construction. Since the carbon in these fuels is not released into the atmosphere, this ""stored carbon"" is subtracted from the total emissions."
""
"Data Reliability:"
"The reference approach (used here) can overestimate emissions since it uses energy supply data rather than combustion data."
""
"The data as received from the provider do not distinguish between no data and zero values. WRI has distinguished between the two where possible, but some values represented as zero should probably be indicated by "".."" and vice-versa."
""
"The IEA has created CO2 emissions estimates from energy statistics that are based on well-established and institutionalized accounting methodologies and undergo thorough review and adjustments. In a few cases, however, these estimates differ significantly (>5%) from those reported by individual countries or by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). This is because individual countries may use different energy figures than the IEA or treat bunker fuels differently. Other countries may calculate emissions with specific calorific values instead of the averages used by the IEA."
