<P> This is a list of sovereign states and territories by carbon dioxide emissions due to certain forms of human activity, based on the EDGAR database created by European Commission and Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency released in 2015 . The following table lists the 2015 annual CO emissions estimates (in thousands of CO tonnes) along with a list of emissions per capita (in tonnes of CO per year) from same source . The data only considers carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil fuels and cement manufacture, but not emissions from land use, land - use change and forestry . Emissions from international shipping or bunker fuels are also not included in national figures, which can make a huge difference for small countries with important ports . The top 10 largest emitter countries account for 67.6% of the world total . Other powerful, more potent greenhouse gases, including methane, are not included in this data . </P> <Table> <Tr> <Th> Country </Th> <Th> CO emissions (kt) in 2015 </Th> <Th>% CO emissions by country </Th> <Th> Emission per capita (t) in 2015 </Th> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> World </Td> <Td> 36,061,710 </Td> <Td> 100% </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> China </Td> <Td> 10,641,789 </Td> <Td> 29.51% </Td> <Td> 7.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> United States </Td> <Td> 5,172,338 </Td> <Td> 14.34% </Td> <Td> 16.1 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> European Union </Td> <Td> 3,469,671 </Td> <Td> 9.62% </Td> <Td> 6.9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> India </Td> <Td> 2,454,968 </Td> <Td> 6.81% </Td> <Td> 1.9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Russia </Td> <Td> 1,760,895 </Td> <Td> 4.88% </Td> <Td> 12.3 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Japan </Td> <Td> 1,252,890 </Td> <Td> 3.47% </Td> <Td> 9.9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Germany </Td> <Td> 777,905 </Td> <Td> 2.16% </Td> <Td> 9.6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> International Shipping </Td> <Td> 642,024 </Td> <Td> 1.78% </Td> <Td>--</Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Iran </Td> <Td> 633,750 </Td> <Td> 1.76% </Td> <Td> 8.0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> South Korea </Td> <Td> 617,285 </Td> <Td> 1.71% </Td> <Td> 12.3 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Canada </Td> <Td> 555,401 </Td> <Td> 1.54% </Td> <Td> 15.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Saudi Arabia </Td> <Td> 505,565 </Td> <Td> 1.40% </Td> <Td> 16.0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Indonesia </Td> <Td> 502,961 </Td> <Td> 1.39% </Td> <Td> 2.0 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> International Aviation </Td> <Td> 502,936 </Td> <Td> 1.39% </Td> <Td>--</Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Brazil </Td> <Td> 486,229 </Td> <Td> 1.35% </Td> <Td> 2.3 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Mexico </Td> <Td> 472,018 </Td> <Td> 1.31% </Td> <Td> 3.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Australia </Td> <Td> 446,348 </Td> <Td> 1.24% </Td> <Td> 18.6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> South Africa </Td> <Td> 417,161 </Td> <Td> 1.16% </Td> <Td> 7.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> United Kingdom </Td> <Td> 398,524 </Td> <Td> 1.11% </Td> <Td> 6.2 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Turkey </Td> <Td> 357,157 </Td> <Td> 0.99% </Td> <Td> 4.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Italy </Td> <Td> 352,886 </Td> <Td> 0.98% </Td> <Td> 5.9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> France </Td> <Td> 327,787 </Td> <Td> 0.91% </Td> <Td> 5.1 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Poland </Td> <Td> 294,879 </Td> <Td> 0.82% </Td> <Td> 7.6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Thailand </Td> <Td> 279,253 </Td> <Td> 0.77% </Td> <Td> 4.1 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Taiwan </Td> <Td> 279,174 </Td> <Td> 0.77% </Td> <Td> 11.9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Kazakhstan </Td> <Td> 267,978 </Td> <Td> 0.74% </Td> <Td> 15.2 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Spain </Td> <Td> 262,683 </Td> <Td> 0.73% </Td> <Td> 5.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Malaysia </Td> <Td> 245,371 </Td> <Td> 0.68% </Td> <Td> 8.1 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Ukraine </Td> <Td> 228,688 </Td> <Td> 0.63% </Td> <Td> 5.1 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Egypt </Td> <Td> 226,985 </Td> <Td> 0.63% </Td> <Td> 2.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Vietnam </Td> <Td> 206,028 </Td> <Td> 0.57% </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> United Arab Emirates </Td> <Td> 199,253 </Td> <Td> 0.55% </Td> <Td> 21.8 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Argentina </Td> <Td> 191,199 </Td> <Td> 0.53% </Td> <Td> 4.4 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Venezuela </Td> <Td> 178,568 </Td> <Td> 0.50% </Td> <Td> 5.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Pakistan </Td> <Td> 174,843 </Td> <Td> 0.48% </Td> <Td> 0.9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Netherlands </Td> <Td> 165,317 </Td> <Td> 0.46% </Td> <Td> 7.8 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Iraq </Td> <Td> 160,623 </Td> <Td> 0.45% </Td> <Td> 4.4 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Algeria </Td> <Td> 147,692 </Td> <Td> 0.41% </Td> <Td> 3.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Philippines </Td> <Td> 113,035 </Td> <Td> 0.31% </Td> <Td> </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Czech Republic </Td> <Td> 111,092 </Td> <Td> 0.31% </Td> <Td> 10.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Uzbekistan </Td> <Td> 109,845 </Td> <Td> 0.30% </Td> <Td> 3.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Belgium </Td> <Td> 97,002 </Td> <Td> 0.27% </Td> <Td> 8.6 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Kuwait </Td> <Td> 95,013 </Td> <Td> 0.26% </Td> <Td> 24.4 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Turkmenistan </Td> <Td> 94,236 </Td> <Td> 0.26% </Td> <Td> 17.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Qatar </Td> <Td> 88,825 </Td> <Td> 0.25% </Td> <Td> 39.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Nigeria </Td> <Td> 86,896 </Td> <Td> 0.24% </Td> <Td> 0.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Romania </Td> <Td> 81,247 </Td> <Td> 0.22% </Td> <Td> 4.2 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Chile </Td> <Td> 81,110 </Td> <Td> 0.22% </Td> <Td> 4.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Colombia </Td> <Td> 80,967 </Td> <Td> 0.22% </Td> <Td> 1.7 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Oman </Td> <Td> 78,446 </Td> <Td> 0.22% </Td> <Td> 17.5 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td> Azerbaijan </Td> <Td> 38.000 </Td> <Td> 0.10% </Td> <Td> 3.9 </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Td_colspan="4"> other countries </Td> </Tr> </Table> <Tr> <Th> Country </Th> <Th> CO emissions (kt) in 2015 </Th> <Th>% CO emissions by country </Th> <Th> Emission per capita (t) in 2015 </Th> </Tr>
