The following graph shows projected CO₂ emissions in India based on the level of urbanization that occurs in the 21st century. Why do you think a higher level of urbanization will result in greater CO₂ emissions? How might India reduce its CO₂ emissions without reducing its energy consumption (which is necessary as India develops economically)?
