Interpretation: In accordance with the above descriptive analysis, it has been identified
that average region is America and majority of them is Africa, whereas 50% of them is Asia
(Yousaf and et.al., 2020). Whereas, the average GHG emission within countries identified from
the table is 161.69 while 50% of the emission value reflected is 8.63. Further, the mean of
overall population within a selected country is 34971373.18 and 50% countries have 6572030
populations. Apart from this, the above table entails that within a chosen country, the mean of
the land area in square km is 6572030. In addition to this, 50% of the country have 24442 as a
GDP whereas 392396 million is the average of GDP. Further, it can be stated that with the help
of above table, it can be reflected that the temperature can be deviated by 12% when the region
changes from the variance.

QUESTION 2
One way anova
Null Hypothesis (H0): There is no significant different between per capita annual greenhouse gas
emission and different UN regions
Alternative hypothesis (H1): There is a significant different between per capita annual
greenhouse gas emission and different UN regions

Within Groups 14.000 9 1.556
Total 366.372 217
Interpretation: With the help of one way anova table, it has been analysed that there is
no significant difference between the variables because the significant value is greater than 0.05
and that is why, null hypothesis is accepted over alternative (Ellersieck and La Point, 2020). In
addition to this, the F value of the study also represent that there is no difference between a
groups because the value of F factor is 1.089 which is greater than 0.05. As a result, it can be
stated that the greenhouse gas emission does not within different UN region.
QUESTION 3
Correlation table
Correlations
Region GHG Population Area GDP Temp
GHG Pearson Correlation .039 1 0.821** .590** .860** -.054
Sig. (2-tailed) .569 .000 .000 .000 .424
N 218 218 218 217 218 218

** Correlation is significant at 0.01 level (2-tailed)
Interpretation: With the help of correlation table, it has been stated that the association between
per capita annual greenhouse gas emission has only 3% association with region. Further, the
relationship between GHG with population is also high because the table indicate that there is
82% relationship between the variables which reflected that when number of population
increases, the chances of GHG emission also increases. Further, the association between area and
GHG is moderate because there is 59% chances of fluctuation in GHG if area of a country
increases and decrease (Livadiotis, 2020). Also, there is a high relationship between GDP and
GHG because the value indicate from the table shows that there is 86% change identified within
a dependent variable. Thus, it can be stated that if there is any change in greenhouse gas
emission, then there is 86% change in the overall country’s GDP. Lastly, there is negative
correlation between temperature and GHG because the value reflected is -5% change over the
variable.
Overall, it can be reflected through the multivariate association that there is highly
association between GHG and Population, GDP. However, negative association with
temperature of countries with GHG.
