Most industrialised countries have peaked carbon dioxide emissions during economic crises through strengthened structural change
G. Bersalli, T. Tröndle, et al.
This study by Germán Bersalli, Tim Tröndle, and Johan Lilliestam explores how economic crises impact CO2 emission peaks in major emitting countries from 1965 to 2019. Discover the surprising link between recessions and falling emissions, revealing how economic downturns can amplify decarbonization trends rather than trigger them. This research delves into the mechanisms behind these shifts, offering insights into energy efficiency and structural economic changes during crises.
