EcoWatch: Some of the worlds richest countries are not doing enough to limit their greenhouse gas emissions, according to new analysis. The report by Climate Action Tracker (CAT) says that all the G7 countries and the member states of the European Union (EU) have so far agreed to keep their emissions at around their present levels for the next 15 years, instead of cutting them fast. The combined climate plans for the G7 and the EU mark a small step towards the right track to hold warming to two degrees...

G7 poised for historic call to phase out fossil fuel emissions

RTCC: G7 leaders appear to be edging towards agreeing on an historic target to wipe out greenhouse gas emissions by the end of the century. Talks on climate change ran late into Sunday night as officials debated a variety of carbon cutting options, RTCC understands. These included a goal proposed by the EU to cut emissions 60% on 2010 levels by 2050, with full decarbonisation by 2100, and another goal for G7 countries to decarbonize their own energy sectors by 2050. European Council president...

Blue and Green: After years of reckless development that has affected people and the environment, China is now set to go through a phase of normal growth and could see greenhouse gas emissions decline within 10 years, according to a new report by the London School of Economics (LSE). In the paper, economist Lord Nicholas Stern and researcher Fergus Green from the Grantham Research Institute at LSE, said the countrys greenhouse gas emissions will probably peak in 2025, five years earlier than expected, and...

Chinese emissions may peak by 2025, says analysis
2015-06-08 01:10:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence France-Presse: In a boost for hopes to curb climate change, China's greenhouse gas emissions will probably peak in 2025, five years earlier than its stated target, a study said Monday. On current trends, the world's biggest carbon emitter will discharge 12.5-14 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide equivalent (GtCO2e) in 2025, after which emissions will decline, it said. The work was carried out by two research institutes at the London School of Economics (LSE). "This finding suggests it is increasingly likely that...
