Graph for GDP VS CO2 emission (metric tons per capita)

Inference:

India, being developing country, high damage to the environment due to the lack of ability
to prioritize environmental wellbeing. High levels of deforestation and overexploitation of
sensitive land are necessary for citizens living in India in order to make a living. As the
economy grows, environmental damage decreases (mainly due to the mechanisms holding
the level of environmental damage high is alleviated, that is, country is developing). When
the turning point is reached, the pollution (CO2 emission) is thought to increase with
economic growth and eventually get as high as originally. The positive trend in
environmental degradation is caused by increased consumption which leads to increased
production. The environmental damage due to CO2 emission caused by increased
production is extremely damaging to the environment. The graph suggests a possibility for a
stagnation of the level of CO2 emission at the turning point (GDP = 5.8). This path, at very
low levels of environmental damage, is only possible if green technology and development
is of high priority.
