ENVIRON 157 Lecture Notes - Lecture 13: Global Carbon Project, Tonne, Carbon Cycle
Document Summary
All the data is shown in billion tonnes co2 (gtco2) 1 gigatonne (gt) = 1 billion tonnes = 1 1015g = 1 petagram (pg) 1 kg carbon (c) = 3. 664 kg carbon dioxide (co2) 1 gtc = 3. 664 billion tonnes co2 = 3. 664 gtco2. The global carbon budget and the information presented here are intended for those interested in learning about the carbon cycle, and how human activities are changing it. The information contained herein is provided as a public service, with the understanding that the global carbon project team make no warranties, either expressed or implied, concerning the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of the information. Global fossil co2 emissions: 36. 6 2 gtco2 in 2018, 61% over 1990. Projection for 2019: 36. 8 2 gtco2, 0. 6% higher than 2018 (range -0. 2% to 1. 5%) Fossil co2 emissions will likely be more than 4% higher in 2019 than the year of the paris agreement in.
