+# CO2 emissions (tonnes per person) for Canada
+
+This series describes carbon dioxide emissions from the burning of fossil
+fuels (metric tonnes of CO2 per person) in Canada. The data is retrieved from
+[GapMinder](https://www.gapminder.org/tools/#$state$marker$axis_y$which=co2_emissions_tonnes_per_person&domainMin:null&domainMax:null&zoomedMin:null&zoomedMax:null&scaleType=genericLog&spaceRef:null;;;&chart-type=bubbles)
+
+We isolate Canada because there is a long history and the behaviour looks
+interesting.
