pollution solution in peril? Rising Emissions threaten to kill Climate Goals

Despite international climate pacts, greenhouse gas emissions have risen by 8% since the 2015 Paris Agreement. As Doug McIntyre reports,, greenhouse gases would need to drop by 7% annually through 2035 to meet the Paris goals, a nearly impossible tasl given current fossil fuel dependence. Major polluters like China, the U.S. and India still rely on fossil fuels, with renewables growth failing to compensate. The U.S., now the largest oil and gas producer, saw record oil output in December, with Europe as a key export market.
