About

The Kaya identity is an identity stating that the total emission level of carbon dioxide can be expressed as the product of four factors: population, GDP per capita, energy per GDP (energy intensity of GDP), and CO2 per energy (carbon intensity of energy).

In this dataset CO2 emissions are production-based.
