Aug 2012 "changes in atmospheric CO2 are not tracking changes in human emissions" 2015 CO2 has flatlined. 13 March 2015 Data from the International Energy Agency (IEA) indicate that global emissions of carbon dioxide from the energy sector stalled in 2014, marking the first time in 40 years in which there was a halt or reduction in emissions of the greenhouse gas that was not tied to an economic downturn. 2016 CO2 flatlined for a second year in a row. 2016: "The IEA reports that for the second year in a row, the world economy has grown while energy-related CO2 emissions remained flat."

2017 CO2 emissions remain flat for a third year. IEA finds CO2 emissions flat for third straight year even as global economy grew in 2016 17 March 2017. 2019 Global energy-related CO2 emissions flattened in 2019 Global energy-related CO2 emissions flattened in 2019 at around 33 gigatonnes (Gt), following two years of increases. This resulted mainly from a sharp decline in CO2 emissions from the power sector in advanced economies1, thanks to the expanding role of renewable sources (mainly wind and solar PV), fuel switching from coal to natural gas, and higher nuclear power output. MIT MIT Technology Review also noticed MIT Technology Review also reported the fact CO2 stopped rising as well.
