This graph displays the carbon dioxide emissions per capita in the European Union in 2016, by country. In this year, the the country with the highest levels of CO2 emissions per capita was Luxembourg, at 18,210 kg CO2/cap. One reason for Luxembourg's high carbon footprint is that it has the highest number of passenger cars per 1,000 inhabitants in the European Union, at 662.
