Global Carbon Emissions Projected Reach Record High in 2013
2013-11-19 22:33:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World News: Global carbon emissions are expected rise to a record high this year of 36 billion metric tons, according to new figures from the Global Carbon Project. The rise represents a 2.1 percent increase in projected emissions and puts 2013 global emissions from burning fossil fuels at 61 percent above 1990 levels, the baseline year for the Kyoto Protocol. The projected rise in emissions clashes with the United Nations goal of keeping global temperatures from rising more than two degrees Celsius. ...

RedOrbit: Scientists from the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research at the University of East Anglia (UEA) released their annual Global Carbon Budget report on Tuesday, which found that the continued burning of fossils fuels will drive carbon dioxide emissions to a record high of 40 billion tons in 2013. Based on several recent studies and global computer models, the reports projected fossil fuel emissions rise of 2.1 percent would put global levels at 61 percent above those from 1990, the baseline...

2013 Global Carbon Emissions to Reach Record Level
2013-11-19 18:32:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
LiveScience: The world is on track to emit record levels of carbon dioxide this year, according to a new report announced yesterday (Nov. 18). The study, to be published in a forthcoming issue of the journal Earth System Science Data Discussions, found that the world is set to emit nearly 40 billion tons (36 billion metric tons) of carbon dioxide by the end of 2013. The estimate represents a 2.1 percent increase over last year's emissions levels, and a 61 percent increase over 1990 levels. Earth is heating...

Scotsman: WORLD carbon emissions are set to reach a record 36 billion tonnes by the end of the year, scientists have warned. Figures revealed in the annual Global Carbon Budget show the level of emissions is estimated to be 61 per cent above 1990 levels agreed by the Kyoto Protocol on greenhouse gases. The report found the biggest contributors to fossil fuel emissions in 2012 were China, accounting for 27 per cent, the United States for 14 per cent, the European Union for 10 per cent, and India for 6...
