Only via dodgy accounting, Defence arent counted, international flights, international shipping etc aren’t counted at all. Then there is the entire issue that outsourced emsision are ignored, they will go up again if onshoring occurs. Outsourced emissons are worse becase of shipping which isn’t counted at all.
The dodgy accounting is deliberate as Deiter Helm explains.
We’re doing noting to reduce emissions except LARPing. This isnt a tech problem, it’s a behavioural one. Closing aiports, banning private cars, banning cruise ships, cutting the military in 1/2 are solutions ebwryhibg eise is just posturing.
Bit I’ve had this debate with you a decade ago on Reddit and since then the Keeling curve keeps rising an rising.

Yes, worldwide emissions are still rising — largely because of emissions growth outside the US.
And no, it’s not a result of “dodgy accounting” — it’s because of how electrical generation has changed, with a sharp drop in the use of coal.
