Question

Explain why it has proved to be so difficult for countries to reduce their carbon dioxide emissions (you will need to think about where the carbon dioxide comes from)

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer. Firstly, lower than expected demand for a commodity results in lower prices making a further reduction in demand more difficult. Coal is a clear example. Resulting low coal prices led to increasing demand and an increase in the market share of coal in the global primary energy mix.
