A paper by a team from the University of Chicago and MIT suggests that technology-driven cost reductions in fossil fuels will lead to the continued use of fossil fuels—oil, gas, and coal—unless governments pass new taxes on carbon emissions. for oil, 24% for coal, and 20% for natural gas.

Information on the other two greenhouse gases, methane (CH 4 ) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O), is only available until 2012, as international statistics on agricultural activities—the main source of these emissions—are not updated as frequently as on energy and industry-related activities. Other greenhouse gases keep creeping up.

In 2015 we introduced the efficient transformation splitting of CO 2 by electrolysis in molten carbonates to form carbon nanotubes and nanofibers at high yield. Pulverized coal is often used as the flame fuel, and fuel is also added to heat and drive the calciner and preheaters. —Licht (2017). 2017.02.005.
