Emissions have risen in 2024 in China. First estimates put it at +0,8%. It is for sure good considering a GDP growth at +5% but it is not a fall. It is also not the first time. It happened during COVID. There is only a fall on certain months/periods… US saw a decrease of -0,4% and EU had -2,9% (following a -8,5% in 2023) World +0,8%. All time high.
Do you mind providing a source for this information? It seems to contradict this
It is not contradicting it actually. The article you refer to is doing a comparison between Q1 2024 and Q1 2025. it‘s very early estimation on a quarter. I am referring to full 2024 vs 2023. but certainly many articles estimates a possible reduction in 2025. this would be a great example for the world.
