Urbanization and climate change Cities are often blamed for climate change. Sometimes‚ this is on the basis of estimates that seem to have no supporting evidence. This can be seen in the much-cited suggestion that cities account for 80 per cent of all GHG emissions worldwide. Actually‚ only around 35 per cent of the world’s GHG emissions are emitted within city boundaries‚ although city populations account for a higher proportion if emissions are allocated to consumers. In other instances‚ it seems
