Even more worrying is a fact David Wallace-Wells points out in his best-selling book Uninhabitable Earth : more than half of the carbon emitted in the atmosphere today was emitted in the past 30 years. Most mainstream projections suggest fossil fuels will continue to supply 50-60 per cent of energy by 2050. What would change?
