This chart shows industry-related CO2 emissions of the top emitting countries, in both absolute and per capita terms. Together, these countries account for 85 percent of global emissions from this sector, with the five largest emitters accounting for 62 percent of the global total. This sector is unusual in that a majority of global emissions come from developing countries, with China having the largest share (22 percent). However, in per capita terms, industrialized country emissions are still four times higher than developing countries.
