The carbon budget for 1.5°C From Future Earth and the Global Carbon Project, this animation shows the atmosphere as a "bucket" filling with greenhouse gas pollution, from 1870 to 2020. Concept by Rob Jackson, visualisation by Alistair Scrutton (Future Earth) and Jerker Lokrantz (Azote). See also: Assumptions and choice of data used. The data used to create the animation.

Top 20 Country Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emission History (1960-2017) From WawamuStats, this video using data from CDIAC shows the Top 20 countries by the total annual carbon dioxide emission (CO2 emission) from 1960 to 2017. The United States contributed to almost 1/3 of the entire world's CO2 emissions in the 1960s but China and India started catching up in the early 2000. YouTube |

Carbon Dioxide from the GEOS-5 model. This visualisation by Greg Shirah provides a high-resolution, three-dimensional view of global atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations from September 1, 2014 to August 31, 2015. The visualisation was created using output from the GEOS modeling system, developed and maintained by scientists at NASA. NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center |

A Brief History of CO2 Emmissions. Together with the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), the Urban Complexity Lab of the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam (FHP) developed an animated short movie that visualises the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of the past – and the possible future.
