Carbon emissions have traditionally been associated with economic growth because industries such as manufacturing, transportation, and construction require energy, often produced through burning fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas. As economies have grown in the past, so has the demand for energy, leading to an increase in carbon emissions.
However, in recent years, there has been a shift towards renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, which produce little to no carbon emissions. This shift has been driven by several factors, including concerns over climate change and the increasing affordability and efficiency of renewable energy technologies.
