INDIA: GLOBAL CO2 EMISSIONS IS RISEING
Driven by China's greater use of coal, global emissions of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels are projected to rise again in 2017 after a three years hiatus. The alarming projection for 2017 was raveled in new report by the Global Carbon project and published simultaneously in the journals Nature Climate Change. Environmental Research Letters.
Global emissions from all human activities will reach 41 billion tonnes in 2017, following a projected two per cent figures point to China as the main cause of the renewed growth in fossil emission with a projected growth of 3.5 per cent.
CO2 emissions are expected to decline by 0.4 per cent in the US and 0.2 per cent in the EU, smaller declines then during the previous decade, the report said.
It is probably too to say that emissions are on the rise again, but our estimate for 2016 and 2017 clearly does not show any sing of peak and decline as needed to stabilize the climate, said study co-author Pierre Frankenstein.
