CO2 emissions level off, still too high to save climate: report

MARRAKESH, Morocco,(MILLAT+APP/AFP): Carbon emissions from burning
fossil fuels have been nearly flat for three years in a row — a “great help” but not enough to stave off dangerous global warming, a report said Monday.
Emissions of planet-warming carbon dioxide stayed level in 2015 at
36.3 billion tonnes (GtCO2) and were projected to rise “only slightly”, by 0.2 percent in 2016, according to the annual Global Carbon Budget report compiled by teams of scientists from around the world.
