The financial crisis is helping to reduce the CO2 emissions

The Economic and Social Research Council’’s (ESRC), a center in UK associated with the University of Leeds and the London School of Economics has made new calculations of the total green house gas emissions by year 2012, and the findings are a reduction caused by the present recession and financial crisis. According to the calculations the total emissions will be 9% lower than expected.
The 9% reduction is of course good news. However, there is a risk that the present lack of financial possibilities will slow down the willingness to make ‘green investments’ that otherwise would be made. But even worse is the risk that many return to ‘business as usual’ when the financial crisis is over.
