It is not. During the two years since 2007, carbon emissions have dropped 9 percent. While part of this drop is from the recession, part of it is also from efficiency gains and from replacing coal with natural gas, wind, solar, and geothermal energy.<br> <br> The U.S. has ended a century of rising carbon emissions and has now entered a new energy era, one of declining emissions. Peak carbon is now history. What had appeared to be hopelessly difficult is happening at amazing speed. </font></p><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Verdana" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><a href="http://www.grist.org/article/u.s.-headed-for-massive-decline-in-carbon-emissions/">http://www.grist.org/article/u.s.-headed-for-massive-decline-in-carbon-emissions/</a></span></font></div><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Verdana" size="3"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px;"><br></span></font></div><div><div style="margin-top: 0px;
