Researchers measure actual CO2 emissions from fossil fuel use and compare to reported levels

Green Car Congress

The team of researchers, led by researchers from Imperial College London (ICL), developed a technique to estimate CO 2 emissions from fossil fuels using atmospheric measurements, then tested the technique over three months in California. Fossil fuels lack a type of radioactive carbon, an isotope called carbon-14, which decays over time.
