Simulating Green Economies
Simulating Carbon Emission savings while maintaining GDP - often called green economies
195
Countries
in scope
Finding examples to follow
To stay realistic, we need to find great examples of green economies today
Leading countries with the lowest carbon dioxide emission per GDP
Some of them have a small economy and could see emission growing with their development
If we only look at developped economies, leading countries
Those countries represent an great example of what can be considered as green economies today
Simulating a green economy for all countries
If all countries were to have a green economy like the leading 5 developped countries, we would save 82% of all emission
82%
This simulation takes into account an increase in carbon dioxide emissions for some undevelopped economies
