Prepare for High Energy Growth, Climate Experts Warn
International Energy Agency Faulted for Unrealistic Projections
World leaders are in denial about how rapidly energy consumption is rising, and its implications for global warming, according to experts who spoke at Breakthrough Dialogue. We can expect a tripling of global energy consumption if the whole world achieves Germany's highly efficient levels. Consider the rapid transformation of Shanghai (pictured above). And yet, over the last 20 years, the percentage of energy coming from zero-carbon energy sources has remained flat. The International Energy Agency is feeding denial of our high-energy future.
