Another quote from the Gergis Essay.

The message from the Scientific community Couldn't be any clearer.

Achieving the goals of the Paris agreement is technically possible, but only if the political will is there. One of the few encouraging outcomes of the COP 28 summit was an agreement to triple the worlds renewable energy capacity by 2030.

The International Energy Agency has shown that the tripling of renewables would halve the need for coal power and deliver the added benefit of halving the " fugitive" methane emissions generated from coalmining. Stringent and effective policies that favour the rapid deployment of renewable power would slash fossil fuel demand 25 per cent by 2030 and a huge 80 per cent by 2050.

Rapid increases in clean energy capacity remove the need for any investment in new coal, oil and gas projects, providing enough time for an orderly phase-out of existing fossil fuel production.
