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. In China, the world’s most populous country, average emissions of CO 2 increased by 9% to 7.2 Since 2002, annual economic growth in China accelerated from 4% to 11%, on average. India (6%).

Ford researchers: global light-duty CO2 regulatory targets broadly consistent with 450 ppm stabilization

Green Car Congress

The SMP model calculates 2000?2050 The Ford team updated the SMP model with historical data for 2000, 2005, and 2010, and extended the model to calculate the total CO 2 emissions (tonnes) and the TTW (tank-to-wheel) emission rate (g CO 2 /km) for the new vehicle fleet. They converted from an absolute amount to scale relative to 2000.

Worldwatch Institute report finds global energy intensity increased in 2010 for second year in a row

Green Car Congress

Particularly during the surge of what was called the “knowledge-based economy” from 1991 to 2000, global economic productivity increased without parallel increases in energy use. Energy intensity is declining in many advanced economies, including the United States, Germany, and Japan.

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

Green Car Congress

This was mainly due to the continuing steady increase in energy use in emerging economies over the past ten years. This slowdown, which began in 2012, signals a further decoupling of global emissions and economic growth, which reflects mainly the lower emissions growth rate of China. The much lower emissions increase in China of 4.2%
