Without climate policy to limit CO2 emissions, US projected to emit 5 billion tons CO2 per year with large fossil fuel use & primary energy demand. Fossil fuel use also emits large amounts of criteria pollutants. Decarbonization slows climate change & improves air quality doi.org/10.1021/acs....

Left panel displays US CO2 emissions for two scenarios, no climate policy and rapid decarbonization; right panel displays US emissions of criteria pollutants for the same scenarios
