Jackson and his colleagues estimate that global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel sources—which represent roughly 90% of all emissions from human activities—will grow a projected 0.6% and China account for more than half of all carbon dioxide emissions globally. Coal use should drop a further 10% in the E.U.

With motor sports moving hard and fast toward electric drive, a friend recently told me that electric drag-car racing just wouldn't be the same without the deafening roar of combustion engines and the smell of "nitro" fuel. With electric vehicles, however, calculating efficiency is not so simple. She's 90 years old.

EIA’s Annual Energy Outlook 2019 projects continued robust growth in US energy production, emergence of the United States as an energy exporter, and a cleaner S electric power generation mix. However, US coal shipments, which are primarily via rail, decline slightly. Bus and passenger rail travel increase 11% and 31%, respectively.

The California Air Resources Board (CARB) announced that greenhouse gas emissions in California in 2016 fell below 1990 levels for the first time since emissions peaked in 2004—a reduction roughly equivalent to taking 12 million cars off the road or saving 6 billion gallons of gasoline a year.
