Global emissions of carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels have risen again after a three year hiatus, according to new analysis from the Global Carbon Project ( GCP ). Emissions of CO 2 from fossil fuels and industry did not change from 2014 to 2016, yet there was a record increase in CO 2 concentration in the atmosphere.
