"'fossil CO2 emissions continue their relentless rise'."
"'We now have strong evidence that clean technologies help reduce emissions while being cost effective compared to fossil alternatives.'"
"'With CO2 emissions still increasing, keeping global warming below 1.5°C is no longer plausible,' said Professor Friedlingstein at the University of Exeter's Global Systems Institute."
Global carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels are projected to reach 38.1 billion tonnes in 2025, a 1.1% increase from last year based on preliminary data and modelling. If accurate, this level would be a record high. Some countries, including the UK, show declining fossil CO2 emissions while their economies grow, but overall global energy demand continues to push many nations toward fossil fuel use. Clean technologies can reduce emissions while being cost-effective compared to fossil alternatives. Continued CO2 increases make keeping global warming below 1.5°C compared with pre-industrial levels no longer plausible.
