Published in the journal Nature Climate Change , the new analysis shows fossil fuel emissions increased by 5.9% each year between 2000 and 2010—three times the rate of increase during the 1990s. The office will support the annual publication of emissions statistics for the atmosphere, ocean and land reservoirs.

The UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a policymaker’s summary of Working Group III’s (WG III) latest report showing that despite a growing number of climate change mitigation policies, annual anthropogenic GHG emissions grew on average by 1.0 GtCO 2 eq (1.3%) per year from 1970 to 2000.

The authors, under the umbrella of the Global Carbon Project , reported a 29% increase in global CO 2 emissions from fossil fuel between 2000 and 2008 (the latest year for which figures are available), and by 41% between 2008 and 1990, the reference year of the Kyoto Protocol. between 2000 and 2008, compared with 1% per year in the 1990s.

The report is based on recent results from the joint JRC/PBL Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research (EDGAR), the latest statistics on energy use and various other activities. According to national statistics, in 2013 total oil consumption in transport increased somewhat by 0.5%, relative to 2012 levels. billion tonnes (Gt).

Study finds rising temperatures increase risk of unhealthy ozone levels absent sharp cuts in precursors

MAY 5, 2014

Warmer temperatures and other changes in the atmosphere related to a changing climate, including higher atmospheric levels of methane, spur the chemical reactions that lead to ozone. To examine the impacts of climate change on ozone pollution, NCAR scientist Gabriele Pfister and her colleagues looked at two scenarios.

Effects of changes in the average lifespan of ordinary passenger cars newly registered between 1990-2000 on total induced CO 2 emissions in 2000. If the 2000 market shares of hybrid cars were 14.1%, a one-year decrease in lifetime will reduce life-cycle CO 2 emission in 2000 by 0.6%. Credit: ACS, Kagawa et al.
