      abstract = {Climate change has since become one of the most significant environmental problems of our era and that has been feasible mostly because of the continuous increase in carbon emissions which humans produce in the world. This will include a discussion on the major contributors to the carbon emission and their contribution to the overall climate change in the world. The secondary data are in the form of peer-reviewed journal materials, international assessment reports, and academic publications, which are used to fully guide the study. Regarding the existing literature, numerous primary causes of carbon dioxide growth in the atmosphere such as the combustion of fossil energy, industrialization, and transport along with changes in land use (IPCC, 2021; Friedlingstein et al., 2023) were suggested. As a result of the global warming caused by rising atmospheric temperatures and the growth of extreme weather, which has severely damaged ecosystems, emissions are taking center stage in global warming with disastrous results (Le Quéré et al., 2020). Even though the international tools (e.g., Paris Agreement) are designed to put a stop to the increasing global temperature, the current state of emissions indicates that the target mitigation measures have much to be desired (Shukla et al., 2022). Thus, the conclusion on carbon emissions reduction is policy based and organized in terms of global effects on policies, effective policies implementation and transition to the sustainable systems of energy to reduce long term climatic and socio-economic effects.},
