The image depicts average carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per person for four countries between 1967 and 2007. In 1967, Sweden and United Kingdom were both near 11 metric tonnes, Italy was at 4 metric tonnes, and Portugal was near 1 metric tonne. By 1977, Sweden peaked close to 12 metric tonnes, the United Kingdom remained near 11 metric tonnes, Italy rose to around 6 metric tonnes, and Portugal increased to approximately 2.5 metric tonnes. In 1987, Sweden's emissions declined to 8 metric tonnes, the United Kingdom's slightly decreased to 10 metric tonnes, Italy was at about 7 metric tonnes, and Portugal approached 4 metric tonnes. For 1997, Sweden's emissions increased slightly to around 9 metric tonnes, the United Kingdom's emissions remained constant around 9 metric tonnes, Italy's rose to 8 metric tonnes, and Portugal's emissions steadied at about 5 metric tonnes. By 2007, Sweden’s emissions dropped to 6 metric tonnes, the United Kingdom’s declined to 9 metric tonnes, Italy’s stabilized at 8 metric tonnes, and Portugal’s emissions climbed to around 5 metric tonnes.

The line graph compares the average emissions of carbon dioxide per person in 4 European countries from 1967 to 2007.
Overall, it is clear that the UK produced the most emissions per capita of the 4 nations over the period although the levels fell slightly. The amount of CO2 emitted per person dropped more markedly in Sweden while levels rose in Italy and Portugal.
In 1967, the UK and Sweden had the highest emissions per person with around 11 metric tonnes and 9 tonnes respectively. Portuguese people had a much lower output, with under 2 tonnes and Italians about double this. Over the next decade, carbon dioxide emissions soared in Sweden to peak at just over 10 tonnes per person before falling suddenly. By the end of the period, Swedes had reduced their levels to under 6 tonnes while in the UK, the figure had fallen less sharply to around 9 tonnes.
In contrast, there were significant increases in the CO2 emitted by Italians and Portuguese over the 40 years. Italy’s figure almost doubled, making it the second highest emitter by 2007 while Portugal’s figure rose even more dramatically to about 5 tonnes per person in the final year.
