This paper, based on the statistical data of global carbon dioxide emission, estimates the total amount, accumulative amount, per capita amount of carbon emission, and predicts the future carbon emission. Carbon emission is an aftermath of global industrialization. Human being are responsible for reducing carbon emission.
The plan for climate changes shall abide by a principle of "common but with difference in responsibility". The developed countries have a big responsibility in carbon emission since the industrial revolution. The developing countries are responsible for reducing carbon emission though they were late for industrialization. Besides increasing energy efficiency, other renewable energies, lowcarbon technologies, a global specific policy shall be established with a clear and measurable goal to stabilize global atmospheric carbon emissions.
