The IEA Latest Report Shows the Fossil Fuel Industry Doesn’t Plan to Meet Climate Change Paris Targets
The International Energy Agency (IEA) in its latest report “Energy to 2050: Scenarios for a Sustainable Future,” analyzes “the intersection between energy and climate change mitigation.” It describes the transition as fraught with challenges because new energy infrastructure to replace our fossil-fuel-based norms will take time to develop and “longer to reach…maximum market share.” Hence, a thirty to fifty-year view takes us the earliest beyond 2050 and as late as the 2070s.
