    "Consumption-based emissions attribute the emissions generated in the production of goods and services according to where they were _consumed_, rather than where they were _produced_.",
    "The data is calculated by adjusting 'production-based' emissions (emissions produced domestically) for trade: Consumption-based emissions equals production-based emissions, _minus_ emissions embedded in exports, _plus_ emissions embedded in imports.",
    "If a country's consumption-based emissions are higher than its production emissions it is a net importer of carbon dioxide. If its consumption-based emissions are lower, then it is a net exporter.",
    "Consumption-based emissions are not available for all countries because not all countries have sufficient, high-quality trade data. But those without complete data are a small fraction (3%) of the global total.",
    "This data measures carbon dioxide (CO\u2082) emissions from fossil fuels and industry and does not include emissions from land use change, deforestation, soils, or vegetation.",
    "Emissions from international aviation and shipping are not included in any country or region's emissions. They are only included in the global total emissions."

 - Data on global emissions has been converted from tonnes of carbon to tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO₂) using a conversion factor of 3.664. - Emissions from the Kuwaiti oil fires in 1991 have been included as part of Kuwait's emissions for that year. - Country's share of the global population is calculated using our population dataset, based on [different sources](https://ourworldindata.org/population-sources). - Each country's share of global CO₂ emissions from flaring has been calculated using global CO₂ emissions from flaring provided in the Global Carbon Budget dataset.
