1 Basic facts on Emissions Spring 09 UC Berkeley Traeger 1 Climate Change 43
2 Global Anthropogenic GHG Emissions Source: IPCC (2007). (a) Global annual emissions of anthropogenic GHGs from 1970 to (b) Share of different anthropogenic GHGs in total emissions in 2004 in terms of carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2 eq, 100 year GWP equivalence). (c) Share of different sectors in total anthropogenic GHG emissions in 2004 in terms of CO2 eq. (Forestry includes deforestation.) Spring 09 UC Berkeley Traeger 1 Climate Change 44
3 GHG Emission Levels by Country Measured in CO2 equivalents for 100 year GWP Spring 09 UC Berkeley Traeger 1 Climate Change 45
4 Per Capita CO 2 Emissions in 2002 Data from Sources: FAO, CDIAC Spring 09 UC Berkeley Traeger 1 Climate Change 46
5 Antropogenic global GHG emissions Measured in carbon dioxide equivalent units, using 100 year global warming potentials from IPCC (1996), data LUFC=Land Use Change and Forestry Source: WRI, Navigating the Numbers: Greenhouse Gas Data and International Climate Policy, the numbers, same source for following slides Spring 09 UC Berkeley Traeger 1 Climate Change 47

16 Land Use Change over the years According to the Woods Hole Research Center, about 100 Pg (one petagram = 1 billion metric tons) of carbon (not carbon dioxide, which is much heavier) were released into the atmosphere from changes in land use world wide between 1860 and 1990.
17 US Emissions A regional measurement based model for CO2 emissions in the US Source: Vulcan project, NASA/Earth Observatory The map shows annual emissions in 2002 (in kilotons of carbon, with 1 kiloton equivalent to about two million pounds) from urban centers (larger red patches), widely scattered point sources like remote power stations or smelters (small red dots), and highways. Spring 09 UC Berkeley Traeger 1 Climate Change 59
