It evaluates the language skills of non-native speakers who wish to study and work abroad. The article focuses on the Co2 Emissions IELTS Writing Task 1 Format With Answer. IELTS&nbsp;has four sections: Listening, Speaking, Reading, and Writing. The writing section of IELTS is divided into two tasks. The second task has double weightage than that of the first task. The tasks require you to write essays on the assigned topic with a clear answer to the question.<\/p><div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_68_1 ez-toc-wrap-left counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title \" >Table of Content<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #192a3d;color:#192a3d\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #192a3d;color:#192a3d\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 eztoc-toggle-hide-by-default' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/co2-emissions-ielts-writing-task-1-answers\/#Task_1\" title=\"Task 1:\">Task 1:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/co2-emissions-ielts-writing-task-1-answers\/#Steps_to_Organise_Your_Answer_for_CO2_Emissions_IELTS_Writing_Task_1\" title=\"Steps to Organise Your Answer for CO2 Emissions IELTS Writing Task 1\">Steps to Organise Your Answer for CO2 Emissions IELTS Writing Task 1<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/co2-emissions-ielts-writing-task-1-answers\/#Example_of_CO2_Emissions_IELTS_Writing_Task_1\" title=\"Example of CO2 Emissions IELTS Writing Task 1\">Example of CO2 Emissions IELTS Writing Task 1<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/co2-emissions-ielts-writing-task-1-answers\/#Conclusion\" title=\"Conclusion\">Conclusion<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/co2-emissions-ielts-writing-task-1-answers\/#Frequently_Asked_Questions\" title=\"Frequently Asked Questions\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-1430\" src=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_772541140-min-300x169.png\" alt=\"co2 emissions ielts writing task 1\" width=\"747\" height=\"421\" srcset=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_772541140-min-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_772541140-min-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_772541140-min-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_772541140-min.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 747px) 100vw, 747px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The time allotted for both tasks is 60 minutes in total.

It represents the average CO2 emissions per person among four European countries: Italy, Sweden, Portugal, and the United Kingdom, over four decades, from 1967 to 2007.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The given <a href=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/ielts-line-bar-graph-ielts-line-graph-bar-chart-model-answers\/\">IELTS graph<\/a> is a line graph illustrating the CO2 emissions of four European nations over four decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the case of line graphs, search for similarities and differences. You can then create patterns and link them to make your answer organised and logical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features and make comparisons wherever relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should spend about 20 minutes doing this task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"average-carbon-dioxide-co-2-emissions-per-person-1967-2007\"><strong>Average carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions per person, 1967-2007<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Capture.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Capture.png 512w, https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Capture-300x188.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The chart demonstrates the difference in the amount of CO2 emitted by individuals in 4 different countries over 40 years. It can be noted from the graph that there were dramatic changes in the readings, and after four decades, the rankings of the countries were not the same as the original.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There was a steady decline in the emissions of carbon dioxide in the UK over the 40-year period. But, it was still the biggest per-capita emitter of carbon dioxide for the given forty years. But, individually, the per-capita carbon dioxide emission went down in the UK and Sweden throughout a forty-year period, but there was an increase in Italy and Portugal. So, the countries showed the opposite trend in pairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the beginning, the emissions of Co2 in Portugal were approximately 1.2 metric tonnes per person. There was a rise in this measurement every decade. Portugal even witnessed a drop in carbon dioxide emissions in 1987. But at the end of the given period, the value had reached almost five times the original value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, in Italy, a person&#8217;s average carbon dioxide emissions were about 4.2 metric tonnes, and they continued to increase till the year 1977, for a decade. From 1977 to 1987, there was a small decline in the amount of CO2 emissions but then ultimately rose higher to 7.8 metric tonnes at the end of the period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 1967, Sweden emitted around 8.3 metric tonnes of carbon dioxide per person. The country hit its peak in 1977 at around 10.2 metric tonnes of CO2. The figure then decreased and reached almost half its peak value at around 5 metric tonnes and remained steady after 1977. The UK, in the beginning, had per-capita CO2 emissions of about 11 metric tonnes. It then gradually showed a downward trend when the figure reached its lowest point, less than 9 metric tonnes in 2007, the final year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_1912830604-min-1024x576.png\" alt=\"Best Tips For IELTS Writing Task\" class=\"wp-image-9905\" srcset=\"https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_1912830604-min-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_1912830604-min-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_1912830604-min-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/leapscholar.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/shutterstock_1912830604-min.png 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conclusion\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Conclusion\"><\/span>Conclusion<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The IELTS Writing Task 1 and the IELTS writing task 2 are important sections of the IELTS writing exam.
