The recoverable fossil fuel reserves are so large (c. 4000 Gt) that they present no constraint to the future buildup of atmospheric CO2 concentration. Future emissions of CO2 will depend on how global energy demand changes, about 80% of which is met by fossil fuel burning, and the role fossil fuels play in the future energy supply. These are the primary uncertainties in future emissions of CO2.

OBS

As opposed to "present emission".
