UN News | Climate change: CO2 and methane in our atmosphere reach record levels

Atmospheric levels of the three main greenhouse gases warming our planet – carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide- all reached new record highs in 2021, according to a new report from the UN’s World Meteorological Organization (WMO).

.

.

The agency’s yearly Greenhouse Gas Bulletin warns of the biggest year-on-year jump in methane concentrations in 2021 since systematic measurements began nearly 40 years ago.

While the reason for the unprecedented increase is still unclear, it seems to be a result of both biological and human-induced processes according to the report.

The increase in carbon dioxide levels from 2020 to 2021 was also larger than the average annual growth rate over the last decade, and according to WMO, the levels continue to rise through 2022.

“[The report] has underlined, once again, the enormous challenge – and the vital necessity – of urgent action to cut greenhouse gas emissions and prevent global temperatures from rising even further in the future,” said WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas.

.

The report explains that between 1990 and 2021, the warming effect on our climate (known as radiative forcing) by long-lived greenhouse gases (those that stay in the atmosphere) has risen by nearly 50 per cent, mainly fuelled by a CO2 increase.

To be more specific, CO2 concentrations last year reached 415.7 parts per million (ppm), methane 1908 ppm, and nitrous oxide 334.5 ppm.  These values constitute, respectively, 149 per cent, 262 per cent and 124 per cent of pre-industrial levels before human activities started disrupting the natural balance of these gases in the atmosphere.

“The continuing rise in concentrations of the main heat-trapping gases, including the record acceleration in methane levels, shows that we are heading in the wrong direction,” Mr. Talas underscored.

WEO22 | World Energy Outlook is out

The global energy crisis can be a historic turning point towards a cleaner & more secure future

.

We just released this year’s edition of our flagship publication, the World Energy Outlook (WEO), which shows that global energy crisis triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is causing profound and long-lasting changes that have the potential to hasten the transition to a more sustainable and secure energy system.

.

.

The report, the gold standard for energy analysis, examines the ongoing shock of unprecedented breadth and complexity that has already caused major tremors in natural gas, coal, electricity and oil markets. It assesses the policy responses by governments around the world, which promise to accelerate the transition to clean energy.

.

And it weighs how these changes measure up against the world’s climate commitments and energy security needs.

.

Read about the key findings – including what the latest developments mean for the long-term outlook for fossil fuels, renewables, energy efficiency and more – in the press release and executive summary.

.

 

Go deeper by exploring more of the online content from this year’s WEO, including the full report available to download for free.

.

Watch the livestreamed launch event at 11 am Paris time today with our Executive Director Fatih Birol and lead authors Laura Cozzi and Tim Gould.

.

For the first time, this year’s World Energy Outlook includes a series of interactive data stories that enable you to explore the key findings visually. Take a look!

World Energy Outlook 2022

.

With the world in the midst of the first global energy crisis – triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine – the World Energy Outlook 2022 (WEO) provides indispensable analysis and insights on the implications of this profound and ongoing shock to energy systems across the globe.

.

Based on the latest energy data and market developments, this year’s WEO explores key questions about the crisis: Will it be a setback for clean energy transitions or a catalyst for greater action? How might government responses shape energy markets? Which energy security risks lie ahead on the path to net zero emissions?

.

The WEO is the energy world’s most authoritative source of analysis and projections. This flagship publication of the IEA has appeared every year since 1998. Its objective data and dispassionate analysis provide critical insights into global energy supply and demand in different scenarios and the implications for energy security, climate targets and economic development.
