1 Las cifras de consumo de energía primaria y equivalente de 64 países que representan el 93.3 % del consumo a nivel mundial. También y en igual periodo, las cifras de emisiones de CO2 generadas.
2 Las cifras de población, que en los 64 países de la muestra representan el 78.9 % del total de la población mundial. También las cifras del producto interno bruto o GDP, en USD, en este caso representa más del 97 % del valor mundial.
3 Relaciones entre estas cifras, que muestran indicadores para el análisis de la problemática medioambiental y energética.
4 En nuestra publicación Energía primaria, población, emisiones de CO2 e indicadores que muestran el problema de contaminación atmosférica, a la que puede acceder libremente mediante el vínculo anterior, encontrará los datos actualizados e indicadores que reflejan y muestran la tendencia de la problemática medioambiental-desarrollo. También puede descargar el Artículo Estadísticas_Energéticas 2009, un análisis que contiene los principales indicadores sobre esta problemática.
Nota: El gas CO2, que se genera principalmente en el proceso de quema de los combustibles fósiles, es el principal causante del calentamiento global.

GDP at purchaser's prices is the sum of gross value added by all resident producers in the economy plus any product taxes and minus any subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and degradation of natural resources. Data are in current U.S. dollars. Dollar figures for GDP are converted from domestic currencies using single year official exchange rates. For a few countries where the official exchange rate does not reflect the rate effectively applied to actual foreign exchange transactions, an alternative conversion factor is used.
