DAILY GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS COMPARISON

Daily greenhouse gas emissions. Illustration comparing the per capita daily greenhouse gas emissions per capita in four different nations. At right is a block representing the average American person's daily emission of greenhouse gases, measuring 66.58 kilograms, or 35.6 cubed metres. This is equivalent to the emissions of two average British people (at 29.86 kilograms, or 16 cubed metres, per capita per day), six average Chinese people (at 10.687 kilograms or 5.7 cubed metres, per capital per day) or twenty-seven average Bangladeshi people (left, at 2.47 kilograms, or 1.3 cubed metres, per capita per day). The emission of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, contributes to global warming. (KEYSTONE/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY/ADAM NIEMAN)

LONDON'S DAILY GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS

London's daily greenhouse gas emissions. Artwork illustrating of the daily greenhouse gas emissions of greater London. Every day greater London emits 139 thousand tonnes of greenhouse gases. This would fill a sphere (blue) with a diameter of 521 metres. This volume is shown on the same scale as some of London's best known landmarks. These are, from left to right: 1 Canada Square (Canary Wharf Tower), Post Office Tower (BT Tower), Tower 42 (NatWest Tower),St Stephen's Tower, 30 St Mary Axe (The Gherkin), Tower Bridge, London Eye and The O2 Arena (formerly the Millennium Dome).
