Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is the primary greenhouse gas emitted by human activities, accounting for approximately 76% of total greenhouse gas emissions.

Electricity and Heat Production is the largest contributor to global carbon emissions, accounting for approximately 25% of total emissions.

Fossil Fuels (Coal, Oil, Natural Gas) are the primary source of electricity generation worldwide, accounting for approximately 64% of total electricity production.

Solar Photovoltaics (PV) has experienced the most rapid growth in recent years, with a global installed capacity of over 600 gigawatts (GW) in 2020.

The main challenge associated with the transition to renewable energy sources is the intermittency and variability of these sources, which can make it difficult to ensure a reliable and stable electricity supply.

Pumped Hydro Storage is considered a promising option for storing large amounts of renewable energy, as it involves pumping water uphill when there is excess electricity and releasing it downhill through a turbine to generate electricity when needed.

The primary goal of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is to capture and store carbon dioxide from industrial sources, such as power plants and factories, to prevent its release into the atmosphere.

The United States has the highest per capita carbon emissions in the world, with an average of 16.2 metric tons of CO2 equivalent per person in 2019.

The Paris Agreement's long-term goal is to limit global temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, while pursuing efforts to limit the increase to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is the international organization responsible for coordinating global efforts to address climate change.

Net-Zero Emissions refers to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions to a level that is equal to or less than the amount of emissions that can be absorbed by natural sinks.

Transportation is projected to experience the most significant growth in carbon emissions in the coming decades, driven by increasing demand for mobility and the continued reliance on fossil fuels.

The primary challenge associated with achieving net-zero emissions is the lack of political will and international cooperation, as it requires coordinated efforts and commitments from governments, industries, and individuals.

The European Union has pledged to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, aiming to become the first climate-neutral continent.

Forests play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle by absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and releasing oxygen through photosynthesis.
