Question Compare the changes in CO₂ emissions shown. Mark
number Answer
1(b)(i) AO3 (2 marks) (2)
Award 1 mark for each correctly identified comparison between the changes in
emissions shown:
• Western countries (UK, Germany USA) are falling but emerging countries
are increasing (1).
• UK had the largest decrease (1).
• China had the largest increase (1).
• Changes to emissions for emerging/Asian countries are 6 to 8x greater than
for western countries (1).

Comparative language must be used. Allow words including ‘whereas’, but’, ‘while’
as part of a comparison.

Accept any other appropriate response.
Question Mark
number Suggest one reason for the changes in CO₂ emissions shown for India and China.
Answer
1(b)(ii) AO1 (2 marks)/AO2 (1 mark) (3)
Award 1 mark for a valid reason and a further 2 marks for explaining the reason, up
to a possible 3 marks. For example:
• China and India are focussed on industrialising their economies, (1) so energy
is needed to power the factories (1) so fossil fuels are used to generate
electricity, leading to high CO₂ emissions (1).
• There has been a global shift of manufacturing industry to China/India from
western economies (1) because production costs are lower (1) so CO₂
emissions are generated there to power the factories(1).
• Populations in India/China are still increasing due to rural- urban migration
and natural increase (although less quickly than in the past) (1) and therefore
more fuel is required for cooking/heating/air conditioning/vehicles (1) and
carbon emitting fuels are the cheapest energy source available (1).
