When you think of the world's most carbon-emitting cities, you might think of New Delhi in India or Beijing
in China.
However, according to the latest report released by the World Resources Institute's Resource Watch, Seoul, South Korea, is the city with the highest carbon emissions in the world, followed by Guangzhou in China and New York City
in the United States.
According to the report, the carbon footprint of a large-scale, high-spending city in the world is comparable to that of a small country
.
Half of the world's population lives in cities, but 100 large cities account for 18% of global carbon emissions, up from 10% previously announced by the C40 Cities Group
.
In most cities, the carbon footprint of household consumption is two to three times
larger than emissions that occur directly within the city.
Seoul occupies a large area, and the city has a high demand
for imported food, meat, and other high-carbon footprint goods and services, as well as large direct emissions from transportation and building heating and cooling.
The report also notes that, on average, 20% of a city's carbon footprint comes from government procurement
.
As a result, cities can take strong measures, such as requiring green electricity, adopting strict building energy requirements, banning non-recyclable cups and bags, and adopting green procurement procedures
.
According to reports, the World Resources Agency has studied the carbon footprint emissions of 13,000 cities around the world, and has drawn the following figure according to the degree of emissions, of which the ten cities with the most serious carbon emissions are: Seoul, Guangzhou, New York, Los Angeles, Shanghai, Singapore, Chicago, Tokyo, Riyadh, Dubai
