The rise in the consumption of fuel scientists studied to best determine why carbon emission levels began to increase rapidly beginning in the 1950s.
Since the late eighteenth century, carbon emissions have been gradually increasing—and quickly since the 1950s. In actuality, since 1950, yearly emissions have doubled. The burning of fossil fuels, specifically coal, oil, and natural gas, is responsible for three-fourths of the world's carbon emissions. The rest is primarily the result of deforestation. The highest share—35 percent—of the four primary industries that contribute to these emissions comes from the production of energy. The remaining 25% originates from residential and commercial structures, with 20 percent each coming from industrial and transportation processes.
Ten countries create two-thirds of the carbon emissions from burning fossil fuels. The largest contributor, responsible for about a quarter of worldwide emissions, is the United States, which has 5% of the global population. China comes in second with over 14%. Germany, Japan, India, and Russia are additional significant pollutants.
