Mean annual temperatures are around 24 to 25 °C (75 to 77 °F) in which the coldest month has a mean temperature of 17 to 20 °C (63 to 68 °F) and the hottest month has a mean temperature of 29 to 30 °C (84 to 86 °F). [19] [22] Average annual rainfall in coastal areas is approximately 2,000 to 2,900 mm (79 to 114 in).
The main contributor to the country's emissions is fossil fuel combustion, which accounted for about 60% of greenhouse gas emissions in 2014. [3] As of 2018, the electricity sector accounted for 48% of Vietnam's CO 2 emissions from fossil fuel combustion, industry for 28%, transport 16%, the residential sector 4%, the commercial sector 3%, and agriculture 1%.

This is a list of countries by planetary pressures–adjusted human development index (PHDI), as published by the UNDP in its 2020 Human Development Report. [1] The index captures the HDI of a country adjusted for ecological and environmental factors like carbon dioxide emissions per person and material footprint.
The curve shown in graphs of these reconstructions is widely known as the hockey stick graph because of the sharp increase in temperatures during the last century. As of 2010 [update] this broad pattern was supported by more than two dozen reconstructions , using various statistical methods and combinations of proxy records, with variations in ...
Human population projections are attempts to extrapolate how human populations will change in the future. [2] These projections are an important input to forecasts of the population's impact on this planet and humanity's future well-being. [3] Models of population growth take trends in human development and apply projections into the future. [4]

For example, while business and agricultural reforms led to the creation of more than 30,000 new private businesses and reduced the percentage of the Vietnamese population living under the poverty line from about 50 percent to 29 percent, [14] an environmental consequence of this growth reported in a 2003 publication jointly produced by MONRE ...
A humid subtropical climate is a subtropical-temperate climate type, characterized by long and hot summers, and cool to mild winters. These climates normally lie on the southeast side of all continents (except Antarctica), generally between latitudes 25° and 40° and are located poleward from adjacent tropical climates, and equatorward from either humid continental (in North America and Asia ...
