Global Carbon Budget 2018: Projected rise in global carbon dioxide of 2.7 percent

The WCRP and Future Earth sponsored Global Carbon Project has published its Carbon Budget 2018. In the budget, it’s estimated that CO2 emissions will rise by a projected 2.7 percent this year. It corresponds to  an uncertainty range between 1.8 percent and 3.7 percent.

In 2017, carbon emissions grew by 1.6 percent after a three-year hiatus.

The budget was published today in Earth System Science Data. It has clear implications for discussions at the Katowice Climate Change Conference.
