数据显示,飙升的全球二氧化碳排放可能已经达到顶峰

全球二氧化碳排放预计将在2015年下降。
发表在期刊上自然气候变化。The flat-lining emissions trajectory is the result of China’s recent sharp decline in coal burning and the global surge in renewables like wind and solar power, said Corinne Le Quéré, director of the Tyndall Centre at the University of East Anglia in Norwich, England, who led the analysis.

But the evidence is growing that peak emissions may be closer than previously imagined.
