Now, not only coal is spewing insane amounts of carbon dioxide – one kilogram per kilo-watt/hour on average – it is also now more expensive than wind, solar, and soon battery storage. China’s coal consumption declined over three consecutive years (2013 to 2016), and a continued slow decline is expected.

As the world grapples with the consequences of climate change, many scientists have begun to face up to the realities of their carbon emissions. At around 15 tonnes per astronomer, it ran to almost four times their annual emissions from flights (figure 1). © 2020 Springer Nature Limited. kg of CO 2 per kilowatt hour.

This is a game-changing move as peaker plants and even baseload ones will become more and more irrelevant, decreasing carbon emissions. So, if our answers to climate change and air pollution are growing, with even global coal consumption peaking, why is there still more and more carbon dioxide in our atmosphere?

Acidification : Reducing the pH rating of a substance making it more acidic in nature, for example, increased carbon emissions lead to the oceans absorbing more of it, increasing acidification and damaging ecology such as coral bleaching.

Earlier this month the International Energy Agency (IEA) released data showing that global carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions hit an all-time high in 2021, rebounding sharply from the 2020 decline caused by COVID-19 related economic slump.

As I have spent some sleepless nights since the latest IPCC report on how Mankind has to halve its carbon emissions by 2030. As we shall see, this is already currently happening, it is the moral thing to do, the best economic choice, and the fastest and easiest way to halve our emissions. A moral imperative.

A year ago, GFANZ said all its members “must align” their portfolios to the UN’s Race to Zero “stringent criteria” aimed at halving global emissions by 2030 and bringing net carbon emissions to zero by 2050.
