Emission data - Global Carbon Project: https://www.icos-cp.eu/GCP/2019

Population data - World Bank: https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SP.POP.TOTL

Tool: R (ggplot2)

Code: https://github.com/rville/co2circle/blob/master/code

Code drops out several countries. Problem spot on line 43. I've kept the original code for reproductability. Also, I'm pretty bad at coding.

Is this only CO2 or does this include things like methane, but converted to CO2-equivalents?

Also, what's up with Sint Maartens? I can understand Trinidad being up there, as it's the biggest oil and gas producer in the Carribean, but Sint Maartens?

Missing Egypt.

But that chart looks great, congrats.
