Global Carbon Budget Infographic 2018

Caption

Global carbon emissions are set to hit an all-time high in 2018 -- according to researchers at the University of East Anglia and the Global Carbon Project. A projected rise of more than 2 per cent has been driven by a solid growth in coal use for the second year in a row, and sustained growth in oil and gas use.
