"With projected #emissions from land-use change (such as deforestation) of 4.2 billion tonnes, total CO₂ emissions are projected to be 41.6 billion tonnes in 2024, up from 40.6 billion tonnes last year.
Over the last 10 years, fossil CO₂ emissions have risen while land-use change CO₂ emissions have declined on average – leaving overall emissions roughly level over that period. This year, both fossil and land-use change CO₂ emissions are set to rise, with drought conditions exacerbating emissions from deforestation and forest degradation fires during the El Niño climate event of 2023-2024."

"The A.I. boom is leaving the tech industry in an awkward spot. After years of claiming to be environmentally friendly, some of the biggest companies in the world are making hard trade-offs between increasing profits and lowering emissions. It’s the kind of conundrum that often leaves executives wanting to have their cake and eat it, too."
