Where are power sector emissions highest? China is the world's biggest power sector emitter. In 2023, Chinese power plants, the majority of which are coal-fired, released 5.5 GtCO₂ into the atmosphere. China's power sector emissions have risen five-fold since 2000, owing to the country...
CO2 emissions are the main driver of global warming, and have increased to record highs. In 2022, following a short-lived dip at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, global CO2 emissions reached 36.8 gigatons (Gt).1 Emissions increased by an additional 1.1 percent in 2023, largely due to...
Global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and industry totaled 37.01 billion metric tons (GtCO₂) in 2023. Emissions are projected to have risen 1.08 percent in 2024 to reach a record high of 37.41 GtCO₂. Since 1990, global CO₂ emissions have increased by more than 60 percent....
Global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels are projected to rise to an all-time high in 2023, increasing about 1.1% from the previous year, climate scientists said during the UN Climate Change Conference Dec. 5. This comes as global leaders fret over whether clear language over the ...

Many inland waters exhibit complete or partial desiccation, or have vanished due to global change, exposing sediments to the atmosphere. Yet, data on carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from these sediments are too scarce to upscale emissions for global estim
In the Achieved Commitments scenario, for example, global energy-related CO2 emissions are expected to peak around 2023 and decline by 69 percent to 11 gigatons of CO2 (GtCO2) by 2050. Across these scenarios, the global mean surface air temperature (GSAT) is expected to increase by 1.7º...
certain small installations can be excluded if governments put in place fiscal or other measures that will cut their emissions by an equivalent amount, in the aviation sector, until 31 December 2023 the EU ETS will apply only to flights between airports located in the European Economic Area. ...

In addition, the e-fuel consideration of the OMEx makes it suitable to reduce the global GHG emissions. This paper assesses the potential of using OMEx as high reactivity fuel to reduce the CO2 well-to-wheel emissions, and NOx and soot tailpipe emissions, in a medium-duty truck operating ...
