Greenhouse Gas Emission Drivers - Population, Economic Development and Growth, and Energy Use (Paperback)

In the context of climate change and possible responses to the risk associated with it, three variables strongly influence the levels and growth of greenhouse gas emissions: population, income (measured as per capita gross domestic product GDP]), and intensity of emissions (measured as tons of greenhouse gas emissions per million dollars of GDP). (Population) x (per capita GDP) x (Intensityghg) = Emissionsghg This is the relationship for a given point in time; over time, any effort to change emissions alters the exponential rates of change of these variables. This means that the rates of change of the three left-hand variables, measured in percentage of annual change, sum to the rate of change of the right-hand variable, emissions.
