This chart shows how CO₂ emissions have grown and shifted across regions over time. The top plot uses a stacked area chart to show each region’s share of global emissions, while the bottom plot shows the total emissions by region. Together, they reveal both the scale and the changing contributions of each region from 1750 to today.
A stacked chart like this is especially useful for showing how individual parts contribute to a larger total and how those contributions shift over time – like population by region, global health outbreaks by country, or electric vehicle adoption by continent. Just plug in your own data by category and year to explore how the story changes over time.
