'Greener energy efforts in China help stall world's carbon dioxide emissions
2015-03-15 01:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence-France Presse: China burned less coal and generated more electricity from renewable sources last year to help global carbon dioxide emissions from the energy sector stall. It was the first time there has been such a halt in 40 years during a period of economic growth, the International Energy Agency said. The slowdown came thanks to "changing patterns of energy consumption in China and OECD countries", it said. China, which is the biggest emitter of carbon dioxide, used more renewable energy last year...

Global CO2 emissions stall despite growth
2015-03-13 23:29:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Agence-France Presse: Global carbon dioxide emissions from the energy sector stalled in 2014, the first time in 40 years during a period of economic growth, the International Energy Agency says. By far the main culprit in global warming, carbon dioxide emissions stood at 32.3 billion tonnes in 2014, unchanged from the previous year, the IEA said. "This is both a very welcome surprise and a significant one," IEA chief economist Fatih Birol said. "It provides much-needed momentum to negotiators preparing to forge...

Report: World carbon emissions stall in 2014 despite economic growth; climate activists cheer
2015-03-13 16:36:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Associated Press: Global energy emissions stayed stable last year even though the economy grew, according to data released Friday that could boost chances for a landmark climate accord later this year. The rising use of renewable energy, particularly in China, played a role in keeping emissions from the energy sector to 32.3 billion tons of carbon dioxide last year, the same as in 2013, the International Energy Agency said. Over the past 50 years, the only other times that emissions stayed the same or shrank were...

Global emissions stall in 2014 following slowdown in China's economy
2015-03-13 15:31:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: A slowdown in Chinas economic growth helped the world to a pause in the upward rise in greenhouse gas emissions last year, according to data released on Friday. China burnt less coal last year than expected, as the projected rise in its energy demand faltered along with the rise in its economic growth, and as the expansion of its renewable energy generation continued. Emissions of carbon dioxide related to energy use were flat in 2014, compared with the previous year, the International Energy...
