Reference News Network, November 14 report - According to the annual report of the "Global Carbon Budget" project, as human fossil fuel consumption continues to increase, global emissions are expected to rise by 1.1% in 2025, setting a new record high. A positive signal is that China, the world's largest emitter, has seen its emissions stabilize, giving people hope that China's emissions may peak, and global emissions may follow suit.
Corinne Le Clec'h, a scholar from the University of East Anglia in the UK who participated in writing the report, said: "The rate of emission reduction is still not sufficient to address climate change. However, at the same time, the growth rate of emissions in China and India is slowing down, which is a significant positive change."
The report estimates that China's emissions are expected to grow by 0.4% in 2025. Analysis from the "Carbon Brief" website shows that China's emissions have remained stable in the first three quarters of this year.
The report stated that the "Embers" organization in the UK said, due to the explosive growth of the solar industry, China's fossil fuel power generation decreased by 1.1% in the first three quarters of 2025, marking a "structural change in the country's power system." (Translated by Wang Dongdong)
