THE ALL SEEING EYE
We're making progress, particularly in generating electrical energy from renewables and nuclear. However it's worth keeping an eye on the larger picture, because electricity generation is a small proportion of overall global energy use.
We need vast quantities of energy to manufacture our infrastructure, particularly concrete and steel; to heat our homes and to manufacture fertiliser to help feed ourselves.
The image below shows how global energy sources have changed over 25 years from 1998 to 2023. The good news is that renewables energy has more than doubled. Less good is that our global energy demand has continued to rise, so the percentage of energy supplied by fossil fuels in 1998 was 87% and in 2023 it had only fallen to 83%
Was the use of a virus to effectively destroy the global livestock industry justified?
