Carbon Dioxide Emissions The given data represent the fossil-fuel carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions (in thousands of metric tons) of the top 10 emitters in 2007. Country Emissions Per Capita Emissions China 1,783,029 1.35 United States 1,591,756 5.20 India 439,695 0.39 Russia 419,241 2.95 Japan 342,117 2.71 Germany 214,872 2.61 Canada 151,988 4.61 United Kingdom 147,155 2.41 South Korea 137,257 2.82 Iran 135,257 1.88 Source: Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (a) Determine the mean CO2 emissions of the top 10 countries.(b) Explain why the total emissions of a country is likely not thebest gauge of CO2 emissions; instead, the emissions per capita(total emissions divided by population size) is the better gauge.(c) Determine the mean and median per capita CO2emissions of the top 10 countries. Which measure would anenvironmentalist likely use to support the position that percapita CO2 emissions are too high? Why?
