A carbon budget is the amount of carbon we can release into the atmosphere before global temperatures rise above two degrees Cel
sius. Our current rate of carbon
released from burning fossil fuels is 37 billion tonnes per year. If we continue to burn fossil fuels at this same rate, how many years could it take to reach the limit of the
carbon budget shown in the graph?
8 years
7.4 years
6.8 years
