As a matter of fact, world coal production is still experiencing a notable increase. This rise has nothing to do with current changes in the US administration policy. It is just a new trend. As an example: In 2024, Australia approved three coal mine expansions. There are 25 additional proposals for new or expanded coal mines currently waiting for Federal government approval. This is more than during the last ten years and will simply represent massive additional CO2 emissions. These pending projects exceed the total from any single year of the last decade. Energy transition appears fraught with challenges, complexities, and structural contradictions. As we grapple with the harsh truths of the present, two fundamental questions arise: Will we be able to reach the 2050 net zero targets? What needs to change to make it happen? Clearly, the world will not be saved by: Switching to an electric car. Limiting your meat consumption. In what we could name sofa-ecology behavior, we must refuse to shy away from inconvenient truths. Society should observe no taboos. We have no time for fear.
