The increase in planet-warming emissions in the US in 2021 outpaced economic recovery, Rhodium Group found -- a troublesome sign for President Joe Biden's climate goals.
In a troublesome sign for President Joe Biden's climate goals, US greenhouse emissions surged back from a pandemic slump faster in 2021 than the overall economy, according to a preliminary analysis by the nonpartisan Rhodium Group.
Energy analysts had expected to see a rebound of planet-warming emissions in 2021. But even so, the growth outpaced expectations, according to Kate Larsen, a partner at Rhodium Group and a co-author of the report. "Emissions grew even faster than the economic recovery and that was largely the rebound in coal generation," Larsen told CNN, noting that"there weren't any significant policies to make economic growth less carbon-intensive.
