CO 2 emissions from natural gas use have grown a sustained 2.2% Given that a further recovery in oil use is expected in 2023, if coal or gas use remain flat or increase, then it is likely that global fossil CO 2 emissions will continue to rise in 2023 without a concerted policy effort. Emissions from gas are projected to rise by 4.7%
