  • Soumyananda Dinda

Abstract

This study examines carefully the distribution aspects in details, particularly the pattern of distribution of global CO2 emission. This paper investigates the share of CO2 emission for bottom 10 and top 10 percentiles, quartiles and their movements during 1960-1990.
