Researchers have measured CO 2 emissions from fossil fuel use in California and compared them to reported emissions. This is the first time fossil fuel emissions have been independently checked for such a large area. Fossil fuels lack a type of radioactive carbon, an isotope called carbon-14, which decays over time.

Removing fossil fuel subsidies would have only a small effect on CO 2 emissions and renewable energy use, according to a new study led by the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) and published in the journal Nature. That means that in some cases the removal of subsidies causes a switch to more emissions-intensive coal.
