The Development of Global CO2 Emissions [PDF]
Carbon dioxide emissions are the main cause of anthropogenic climate change and play a central role in discussions on climate change mitigation. Previous research has demonstrated that national carbon dioxide emissions are driven mainly by population size and wealth.

Plastic futures and their CO2 emissions
Plastics show the strongest production growth of all bulk materials and are already responsible for 4.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions1,2. If no new policies are implemented, we project a doubling of global plastic demand by 2050 and more than a tripling by 2100, with an almost equivalent increase in CO2 emissions.

Carbon Pricing and the Elasticity of Co2 Emissions [PDF]
We study the response of CO2 emissions to carbon pricing for a cross-country panel covering 1990–2016 using newly constructed sector-specific carbon price data. Unlike previous empirical studies evaluating carbon pricing impacts, we explicitly distinguish between the effects of policy introduction (regardless of the price level) and effects ...

The CO2 inhibition of terrestrial isoprene emission significantly affects future ozone projections [PDF]
Simulations of future tropospheric composition often include substantial increases in biogenic isoprene emissions arising from the Arrhenius-like leaf emission response and warmer surface temperatures, and from enhanced vegetation productivity in ...

CO2/SO2 emission reduction in CO2 shipping infrastructure [PDF]
There is an increased focus on the reduction of anthropogenic emissions of CO2 by means of CO2 capture processesand storage in geological formations or for enhanced oil recovery. The necessary link between the capture andstorage process is the transport system.

Impact of rising CO2 on emissions of volatile organic compounds: isoprene emission from Phragmites australis growing at elevated CO2 in a natural carbon dioxide spring. [PDF]
Isoprene basal emission (the emission of isoprene from leaves exposed to a light intensity of 1000 mmol m-2 s-1 and maintained at a temperature of 30 â C) was measured in Phragmites australis plants growing under elevated CO2 in the Bossoleto CO2 ...

CO2 emission of urban passenger transportation in China from 2000 to 2014
This study reviewed the urban passenger transportation (UPT) development of seven typical cities in China from 2000 to 2014, estimated the UPT CO2 emission, analyzed the structure, and discussed the main factors of UPT CO2 emission.

Exploiting CO2:CO correlations from aircraft concentration data in a regional atmospheric inversion [PDF]
Observed correlations between atmospheric concentrations of CO2 and CO represent potentially powerful information for improving CO2 surface flux estimates through coupled CO2-CO inverse analyses.

Nexus between selected macroeconomic variables and carbon emission in Kenya
Agriculture is not only influenced by climate change, but it is also one of the significant contributors of CO2 emission. Understanding CO2 emission and macroeconomic variables is critical to solving the challenges and threats faced by Kenya's ...

Short-and long-term effects of GDP, energy consumption, FDI, and trade openness on CO2 emissions [PDF]
This research applies a Vector error correction model to investigate the long-run and short-run effects of gross domestic product (GDP), energy consumption, foreign direct investment (FDI), and trade openness on CO2 emissions.
