Lowering industrial carbon emissions: What’s really needed
According to many climate scientists, global mean temperatures can only be stabilized at 2.4 °C above current levels—or less—if carbon emissions drop 50% by 2050. Now, Julian Allwood and colleagues report that 50% emissions cuts by industry can only be met with dramatic improvements in material efficiency.
