Carbon brief co2 emissions

Growth in emissions was still relatively slow until the mid-20th century. In 1950 the world emitted 6 billion tonnes of CO2. By 1990 this had almost quadrupled, reaching more than 20 billion tonnes. Emissions have continued to grow rapidly; we now emit...

That is enough to cheer environmentalists. But the data also hint at another promising development: the direct relationship between China's economic growth and its emissions may be loosening.
Total global CO2 emissions - including land use and fossil CO2 - increased by approximately 0.8% in 2022, driven by a combination of steady land-use emissions between 2021 and 2022 and increasing fossil CO2 emissions. However, total CO2 emissions remain...
