Global energy-related carbon dioxide emissions were flat for a third straight year in 2016 even as the global economy grew, according to the International Energy Agency. The decline was driven by a surge in shale gas supplies and more attractive renewable power that displaced coal. Global emissions from the energy sector stood at 32.1
