Explanation of the co-coordinate system.
| Point distribution | Implication |
|---|---|
| First quadrant | Reducing both air pollutants and CO2 emissions. |
| Second quadrant | Reducing air pollutant emissions while increasing CO2 emissions. |
| Third quadrant | Increasing both air pollutants and CO2 emissions. |
| Forth quadrant | Reducing CO2 emissions while increasing air pollutant emissions. |
| Origin | No effect on air pollutants or CO2. |
| Positive half-axis of horizontal coordinate | Reduces CO2 emissions while having no effect on air pollutant emissions. |
| Negative half-axis of horizontal coordinate | Increase CO2 emissions while having no effect on air pollutant emissions. |
| Positive half-axis of vertical coordinate | Reduces air pollutant emissions while having no effect on CO2 emissions. |
| Negative half-axis of vertical coordinate | Increase air pollutant emissions while having no effect on CO2 emissions. |
