Figures from the Global Carbon Project, recently featured in an article in Nature Geoscience, brings forward new figures of CO2 decrease as a result of the recent and still actual economic crisis. The carbon emission levels of today are almost at the same level again as they were before the economic crisis, with only a minor decrease of 1,3 percent in 2009 and not the 2,8 percent as anticipated by climate scientists. Originally, climate scientists where expecting bigger carbon emission reductions than 1,3 percent but that was without consideration of the upcoming nations that are industrializing at a fast pace….

The world is in trouble—and more so than originally thought. Yes, over the past couple of years we have all heard about the economic and environmental problems that we face (whether people choose to believe it or not). However, it seems things may be worse than previously anticipated. A recent study—conducted by a research team associated with the Global Carbon Project—found that global CO2 emissions created from fossil fuels have gone up 29% between 2000 and 2008. Coal seems to be the main culprit in this case: it has surpassed oil as a use of fuel, is an extreme pollutant…
