Emissions of CO2 are the main contributor to anthropogenic climate change. Here we present updated information on their present and near-future estimates. We calculate that global CO2 emissions from fossil fuel burning decreased by 1.3% in 2009 owing to the global financial and economic crisis that started in 2008; this is half the decrease anticipated a year ago. If economic growth proceeds as expected, emissions are projected to increase by more than 3% in 2010, approaching the high emissions growth rates that were observed from 2000 to 2008.
