Global fossil fuel carbon emissions are projected to fall 0.4% this year to 38.2 billion metric tons, driven by high energy prices and renewable adoption. The projected decline follows a record level set the previous year, according to a report released on Tuesday. Scientists warn the single-year drop does not signal a permanent peak without structural shifts in energy systems.
