Instead of beginning a longawaited decline, global greenhouse gas emissions are projected to grow slightly during 19, reaching another record high, according to a new analysis published TuesdayGlobal Greenhouse Gas Emissions Worldwide, net emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities increased by 43 percent from 1990 to 15 Emissions of carbon dioxide, which account for about threefourths of total emissions, increased by 51 percent over this periodFigure 1 Annual global emissions The bars in this figure represent CO 2 emissions for each year in PgC yr1 over the globe CarbonTracker models four types of surfacetoatmosphere exchange of CO 2, each of which is shown in a different color fossil fuel emissions (tan), terrestrial biosphere flux excluding fires (green), direct emissions from fires (red), and airsea gas exchange (blue)
