據(jù)道瓊斯3月17日消息，國際能源署（IEA）表示，2016年全球能源行業(yè)的碳排放量連續(xù)第三年持平。IEA表示，盡管經(jīng)濟(jì)出現(xiàn)增長，但是可再生電力的增長、煤炭向天然氣的轉(zhuǎn)換以及能效的提高幫助減少了碳排放。雖然當(dāng)前要說全球碳排放量已經(jīng)達(dá)到峰值水平還為時過早，但是IEA表示，這種新興的趨勢令人對未來的前景持樂觀態(tài)度。IEA表示，去年全球能源行業(yè)的碳排放量仍然維持在321億噸，其中美國和中國碳排放量的減少彌補(bǔ)了其他地區(qū)的增加。

Global 2016 Carbon Emissons From Energy Sector Flat
Global carbon emissions from the energy sector were flat for the third year in a row in 2016, the International Energy Agency says. Growing renewable power generation, switching from coal to gas and better energy efficiency helped mute emissions even as the economy grew, according to the Paris-based watchdog. Though it's too soon to say global emissions have peaked, the IEA says the emerging trend is a "cause for optimism." Global emissions from the energy sector remained at 32.1 gigatons last year, with declining emissions in the U.S. and China offsetting increases elsewhere, the IEA says.
