Energy efficiency potentially the most effective way to reduce carbon emissions

International Energy Agency 17th April 2018 , Ambitious energy efficiency policies can keep global energy demand and energy-related carbon-dioxide (CO₂) emissions steady until 2050,
according to a new report by the International Energy Agency. Perspectives
for the Energy Transition: The Role of Energy Efficiency shows that despite
a near-tripling of the world economy and a global population that increases
by nearly 2.3 billion, end-use energy efficiency alone can deliver 35% of
the cumulative CO₂ savings through 2050 required to meet global climate
goals.
