Rapidly growing economies open up their manufacturing output - and as people in those countries become wealthier, they can afford more luxury goods
As populations grow and become wealthier, their calorie consumption increases
Cement production produces CO2
Production of metals is very energy intensive
Demand for electricity rises as countries develop
Cars and vans traditionally burn petrol (gasoline) or diesel
Extraction can use energy from fossil fuels - for example, pumping oil, fracking, or extracting fuel from tar sands
Deforestation to create pasture and cropland reduces stored carbon
Tractors and farm machinery emit carbon dioxide
Manufacturing requires energy production, often from fossil fuels
As people become more affluent, car ownership and holidays abroad increase
But, as renewable sources such as solar and wind become cheaper, countries switch away from fossil fuels
Many countries still use coal, gas and oil within their electricity generation capacity
Ploughing causes oxidation of soil organic matter
Aeroplanes burn kerosene in their engines
Trains used to run on coal - now they burn diesel if they haven't been converted to electricity
Cattle and sheep reared for meat and milk produce methane, a powerful greenhouse gas
