Silver linings in the IEA report on 2012 fossil fuel carbon emissions
2013-06-11 03:30:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: As Fiona Harvey reported for The Guardian, the International Energy Agency (IEA) 2012 World Energy Outlook Report found that annual carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels rose 1.4 percent in 2012 to 31.6 billion tonnes (gigatonnes [Gt]). The bad news is that this is a new record high level of emissions. The good news is that it represents the second-smallest annual increase since 2003, behind only 2009 when global fossil fuel carbon emissions fell due to the global recession. Emissions estimates...

IEA Makes Recommendations To Cut Global Carbon Dioxide Emissions
2013-06-11 01:18:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
RedOrbit: Last year, worldwide emissions reached a record high of 31.6 billion tons, despite the fact the United States had its lowest emissions total since the mid-90s, said an International Energy Agency release on Monday. Meanwhile, China had the largest emissions growth, up 3.8 percent over last year. However, the additional 300 million tons was one of the lowest increases in a decade, the report said. American emissions dropped 200 million tons, or 3.8 percent, which the IEA credited partially to...

IEA: Energy emissions rose to record high in 2012

Associated Press: The worlds energy-related carbon dioxide emissions rose 1.4 percent in 2012 to a record high of 31.6 billion tons, even though the U.S. posted its lowest emissions since the mid-1990s, the International Energy Agency said Monday. In its annual World Energy Outlook report, the Paris-based IEA said top carbon polluter China had the largest emissions growth last year, up 300 million tons, or 3.8 percent, from 2011. Still, the increase was among the lowest seen in a decade as China continues to invest...
IEA Warns Merkel to Reduce Cost of German Clean-Energy Switch
2013-05-24 06:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Bloomberg: Chancellor Angela Merkels government should take steps to contain the cost of the German energy switch from nuclear power to renewables, the International Energy Agency said. German consumers have so far borne the brunt through power bills that have been inflated by renewable power subsidies while large consumers have been shielded from the increased costs, the Paris-based adviser said in a study released today. The costs need to be minimized and allocated fairly and equitably, the agency said...
