@claesdevreese Also true: the world never used more fossil fuel than in 2024 which beat 2023 which beat 2022. It doesn't help to produce more solar and wind energy if we also produce more fossil fuel energy. It could become 1% of the total energy used and would still increase the proportion of CO2 in the atmosphere, leading to climate change and its consequences. The use of fossil fuel would need to go down in absolute terms for us to start to deviate from the path to destruction on which we are still currently accelerating. https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/global-fossil-fuel-consumption
