Global fossil fuel emissions are projected to reach a record high in 2025, according to new research published Wednesday by the Global Carbon Project .

To limit warming to the goals set out by the Paris Agreement, global emissions would need to have peaked by the end of this year. The projected increase is another reminder that the world still has a way to go to get on track.
