GLOBAL economic growth did not translate into more harmful greenhouse gas emissions from the energy sector last year, the IEA said on Wednesday, a strong indication that growth and increased pollution no longer go hand in hand.
For the second year running, worldwide CO2 emissions stalled in 2015 while the global economy grew by 3.1 per cent, after a 3.4-per-cent rise in 2014, the International Energy Agency said.
