CO₂ EMISSIONS FOR WORLD

By Jeremy Wraith

According to Our World in Data (https://ourworldindata.org/co2-and-greenhouse-gas-emissions), in 2023, the worldwide CO₂ emission was 37.79 billion tons, while for Australia, it was 382.97 million tons. This is the format always quoted by the powers that be and climate fanatics as it appears to be an enormous figure. It is a big figure, but in terms of the total annual global amount of CO₂ released into the atmosphere of 37.79 billion tons it is infinitesimal. In other words, in 2023, Australia contributed just over 1.0% to the worldwide CO₂ emission.

However, a much more realistic and useable figure for CO₂ emissions is to quote the global concentration of CO₂ in parts/million, (ppm). The Moana Low observatory confirmed that the global CO₂ levelin:-

2017 was 405 ppm, in 2022 it was 417 ppm and in 2024, about 420 ppm.

This means that the average annual global CO₂ increase from 2017 to 2022 was 2.4 ppm, from 2022 to 2024 it was about 1.5 ppm and between 2017 and 2024 it was 2.14 ppm. This hardly shows a massive annual global increase in CO₂, rather the reverse! Also, bear in mind that this % increase comprises the natural global output plus that of nearly 200 nations of which the human element amount was only 3% of the global total or 0.072 ppm/annum.

We are therefore talking about extremely small annual increases of CO₂ by humans, the Australian contribution being about 1% of the human element. Using that 1% figure and the highest annual increase of 2.4 ppm/annum proves that the annual Australian CO₂ contribution is therefore about 0.00072 ppm.

This has practically zero effect on the world’s so-called global warming as Professor Happer has shown, (see below) that increasing CO₂ concentration from 420 ppm to 600 ppm adds less than 1/10 of 1°C to the world temperature at these levels of global CO₂ concentrations.

Hence, it will take Australia about 1,400 years to add just 1 ppm to the current global CO₂ concentration of about 420 ppm.

So, if 200 ppm of CO₂adds 0.1°C then it can be assumed that the annual Australian contribution will add just over 0.1 ÷ 200 x 0.00072 = 0.0000036 of 1°C

Hence, the Australian economy is being decimated and destroyed by various Australian governments to give the world an “example” to follow. Fortunately, the rest of the world is not so incredibly stupid as to take any notice.

Therefore, Australia achieving net zero is so blatantly impractical, unachievable, catastrophically expensive and ineffectual that it must be assumed that the government is allegedly imposing this policy to deliberately destroy the Australian economy and existence as a sovereign, independent and democratic nation.
