Global energy-related CO2 emissions are projected to fall nearly 8% in 2020 due to reduced coal use during the COVID-19 pandemic, representing the largest drop ever. While a rebound is expected post-crisis, low-carbon energy sources surpassed coal for the first time in 50 years as the leading source of electricity generation in 2019. The report proposes a Sustainable Recovery Plan investing $1 trillion over 3 years to boost economic growth while transitioning to cleaner energy. The plan could create or save 9 million jobs annually from 2021-2023 and make 2019 the definitive peak in global emissions.
