New phase of globalization could undermine efforts to reduce CO2 emissions

Green Car Congress

Some production activities are relocating from China and India to other developing countries, such as Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand, particularly for raw materials and intermediate goods production in energy-intensive sectors. It found that trade among developing nations—South-South trade—more than doubled between 2004 and 2011.

Global Carbon Budget 2022: Global fossil CO2 emissions expected to grow 1.0% in 2022

Green Car Congress

India has the largest contribution to growth in fossil CO 2 emissions in 2022, with a projected increase of 6.0% (range 3.9% —Robbie Andrew, a Senior Researcher at CICERO preparing the fossil CO 2 emission estimates. Atmospheric CO 2 concentrations have increased on average 2.4 parts per million, 51% above its pre-industrial level.

IIASA: removing fossil fuel subsidies will not reduce CO2 emissions as much as hoped

Green Car Congress

Fossil fuel subsidies amount to hundreds of billions of dollars worldwide, and removing them has been held up as a key answer to climate change mitigation. Some of the models used even suggested a rise in emissions for some regions, such as Africa and India, as a result of switching from unsubsidized oil and gas to coal.

PBL/JRC: Global CO2 emissions increase to new all-time record in 2013, but growth is slowing down

Green Car Congress

Global CO 2 emissions from fossil fuel use and cement production reached a new all-time high in 2013, according to the annual report “Trends in global CO2 emissions”, released by PBL Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency and the European Joint Research Centre (JRC).

Global CO2 emissions up 3% in 2011; per capita CO2 emissions in China reach EU levels

Green Car Congress

Emissions from OECD countries now account for only one third of global CO 2 emissions—the same share as that of China and India. The United States remain one of the largest emitters of CO2, with 17.3 India (6%). CO 2 emissions increased by 150% in China, and in India by 75%. the United States (16%).

GCP Carbon Budget Finds Anthropogenic CO2 Emissions Rose 2% in 2008 Despite Global Financial Crisis; Natural Sinks Not Keeping Pace With Increasing Emissions

Green Car Congress

The fraction of total CO 2 emissions remaining in the atmosphere has likely increased from 40 to 45% since 1959; models suggests this is due to the response of the natural CO 2 sinks to climate change and variability.
