The headline buries the lede.

"With emissions from land-use change (such as deforestation) projected to increase slightly this year, total CO2 emissions are projected to be 43.3 billion tonnes in 2026 – up from 42.8 billion tonnes last year."

Total annual CO2 emissions are projected to increase by ~half a billion tonnes as a result of land use changes.
