The energy transition isn’t just sounding the death knell for fossil fuels. According to some experts, it has also revealed flaws in an idea that has bugged some academics for decades: As we move to less energy-dense fuels, could we end up without enough surplus for society? We tend to see these values declining over time.”

To realize this ambition nations will have to eliminate their use of fossil fuels. According to Khan by 2030, 60 percent of all energy produced in the country will come from clean energy sources including renewables and almost one third of all vehicles in the country will be powered by electricity.

They are the natural energy present in all forms ranging from sunlight, wind, waves, geothermal heat and tides. Although there is unlimited supply of the fossil fuels, we should go for the use of renewable energy as it is not only safe for the environment, eco-friendly but also less prone to pollutants if any.

As the boats motored through the swells, the self-styled activists broke into a chorus of pleas for the wind farm construction to cease—chants likely intended less for the still-faraway workers than for the camera there to capture footage. “If you were a fossil fuel project, you would have been shut down long ago.”
