Change in global mean surface temperature caused by greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels and industry °C United States +0.209 °C China +0.163 °C Russia +0.069 °C Germany +0.041 °C India +0.039 °C Japan +0.031 °C United Kingdom +0.027 °C Canada +0.019 °C France +0.017 °C
Does it matter how much the United States reduces its carbon dioxide emissions if China doesn’t do the same? Yes, it matters. Observed and anticipated increases in greenhouse gas emissions from China and other countries don’t let Americans off the hook for reducing emissions. From a purely physical perspective, any reduction in emissions helps minimize future temperature increases. From the perspective of fairness, the United States has released more heat-trapping gases to date than either China or India, the world’s two most populous countries.
Our countries all in one. Countries who have in part an excuses for polluting our planet! since crazy 🥶 is synonym of pollution! but again JUST IN PART!
even if ❄️ doesn't mean you need to use ♨️!
Exactly like the need of 🚙 in countries like 🇮🇸, 🇬🇱 ... or 🌋 in 🇮🇸 (which have a small impact)
The sources of electricity generation are more diverse in Germany compared to Denmark as shown by the comparison of electricity production and renewable energy resources. Non-renewable sources still produce the majority of the electricity in Germany (53%), among them coal, natural gas, and nuclear power. Due to geographical circumstances, Germany has a higher potential to use hydro and solar power. Denmark produces most of its electricity from wind and biomass. Only 18% of the electricity is still produced from non-renewable sources like coal and natural gas.
Coal (lignite and hard coal combined) fired power plants are the single source of energy that provides the most energy but still accounts for just 24% of the total energy production https://t.center/EnergiewendeDeuschland/14
Wind energy follows and provides also 24%. Power plants fired by natural gas contribute 16% to electricity production. Nuclear power still produces 11%, although Germany has decided to switch off all nuclear power plants before the end of 2022 (Bundesregierung 2011). https://t.center/EnergiewendeDeuschland/404 https://t.center/EnergiewendeDeuschland/354
