For example if there were 200,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions in 1990, that would become 400,000 tonnes for 2009 A 10,000% increase means that CO2 emissions increased 100 times on top of the original figure. For example if there were 200,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions in 1990, that would become 20,200,000 tonnes for 2009
