The economy in developed countries has an impact on CO2 emissions because the higher the economy the
more people are going to build factories and start businesses. Factories and manufacturing businesses will give CO2 in the smoke they give off. When the economy drops most businesses shut down decreasing the amount of CO2 in the air. Other than factory emissions cars, motorcycles, and trucks give off CO2 emissions. Yet in China and India coal the dirtiest and most carbon-intensive fossil fuel, has been found, and is growing fastest, with coal-related emissions.
