Not exact matches

Cumulative emissions of CO2 since 1870 are set to reach 2015 billion tonnes in 2013 — with 70 per cent caused by burning fossil fuels and 30 per cent from deforestation and other land - use changes.

If the carbon fee had begun in 1995, we calculate that global emissions would have needed to decline 2.1 % / year to limit cumulative fossil fuel emissions to 500 GtC.

A cumulative industrial - era limit of ∼ 500 GtC fossil fuel emissions and 100 GtC storage in the biosphere and soil would keep climate close to the Holocene range to which humanity and other species are adapted.

A limit of approximately 500 GtC on cumulative fossil fuel emissions, accompanied by a net storage of 100 GtC in the biosphere and soil, could keep global temperature close to the Holocene range, assuming that the net future forcing change from other factors is small.

Extrapolating from their forest study, the researchers estimate that over this century the warming induced from global soil loss, at the rate they monitored, will be «equivalent to the past two decades of carbon emissions from fossil fuel burning and is comparable in magnitude to the cumulative carbon losses to the atmosphere due to human - driven land use change during the past two centuries.»

Finally, the emissions standard for each state would be a cumulative, overall emission rate average of all fossil fuel plants in the state.

For example, the «400 ppm CO2 - e» emissions pathway in the Knopf et al. study has cumulative fossil fuel emissions of about 1100 gigatonnes from 2000 to 2050, far higher than the cumulative emissions in our 350 ppm pathway.

The issue was taken up in the same contact group as on cumulative fossil fuel emissions.

One example is the organization Oil Change International which argues that most remaining fossil fuel reserves has to be left in the ground to keep below 2 °C on the basis of cumulative emission budgets (Oil Change International, 2016).

They could cut cumulative carbon dioxide emissions by 34 billion metric tons, more than the total emissions from fossil fuels in this country over six years.

A cumulative industrial - era limit of ∼ 500 GtC fossil fuel emissions and 100 GtC storage in the biosphere and soil would keep climate close to the Holocene range to which humanity and other species are adapted.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change in 2013 estimated that cumulative carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and cement production — from 1750 to 2011 — was about 365 billion metric tonnes as carbon (GtC), with another 180 GtC from deforestation and agriculture.

If we assume that fossil fuel emissions increase by 3 % per year, typical of the past decade and of the entire period since 1950, cumulative fossil fuel emissions will reach 10000 Gt C in 118 years.

Overall, although natural gas is a non-renewable fossil fuel that emits carbon dioxide, the cumulative emissions saved by fuel switching over the next decade from coal to natural gas are likely to prove far cheaper than the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere in future decades.

The Carbon Majors website is based on ground - breaking research on 90 entities (investor - owned, state - owned, and government - run fossil fuel and cement producers) that are responsible for producing the fuels that have resulted in 63 percent of the global cumulative emissions of industrial carbon dioxide and methane between 1751 and 2010.

Cumulative emissions from 1854 to 2010 traced to historic fossil fuel production by the largest investor - owned and state - owned oil, gas, and coal producers, in percent of global industrial CO2 and methane emissions since 1751.
