This statistic displays the distribution of greenhouse gas emissions worldwide from 1970 to 2010, based on groups of gases. In 2000, the global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel and industrial processes accounted for 62 percent of greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide can be removed from the atmosphere through reforestation, soil improvements, and other carbon sinks.
