What is New Zealand's fair share of GHG emissions?

I was playing with this widget on the World Bank's website.
I have graphed New Zealand's carbon dioxide emissions per capita(1) against per capita for World, the European Union, China and sub-Saharan Africa.

New Zealand very much has a developed country consumption pattern.

Data from World Bank


(1) CO2 only and not all greenhouse gases expressed as CO2 equivalent. So methane and nitrous oxide are not included.
