- 1970–2024
Poland: 9.5 (1970) → 7.6 (2024). -20.2 % over 54 years. That is -0.4 % a year — a compound rate, not a sum of jumps.
A pair of series
CO₂ and renewables
Tonnes per person and renewables in final energy.
Renewable energy rose in Poland; CO₂ per person fell more slowly. Renewables are not the whole mix.
CO₂ per person
Tonnes of CO₂ per person. PL and DE down; the world per person is not.
The file
CO₂ emissions in tonnes per person, 1970–2024.
The indicator
EN.GHG.CO2.PC.CE.AR5 is per head, not the national total. A shrinking population can cut per-person tonnes slowly.
What the numbers show
Poland 9.5 → 7.6 t; Germany 14 → 6.9; US 22 → 14; world 4.1 → 4.7. The world per person is not falling. Mix: Renewable energy; forests: Forest area.

Renewable energy
Renewables in final energy. Poland 2.5→15%; the US lags.
The file
Renewables in final energy consumption, %, 1990–2021 (shorter tail than CO₂).
The indicator
EG.FEC.RNEW.ZS covers power, heat, and transport — not installed capacity. Pair with Access to electricity and CO₂ per person.
What the numbers show
Poland 2.5% → 15%; Germany 18%; US 11%; world ~20%. PL/DE rose clearly; the US lags on this measure.
