Fossil fuels—coal, oil, and natural gas—have been a dependable and efficient energy source for over a century. However, their combustion releases greenhouse gases, making fossil fuel emissions the primary driver of climate change. Reducing fossil fuel consumption is imperative to mitigate global warming.

In this episode, hosts James and Daisy delve into the contentious debate surrounding fossil fuels. Are fossil fuels essential for meeting current and future global energy needs? How might we transition away from our reliance on fossil fuels? Should fossil fuel companies play a role in our green future?

SOME RECOMMENDATIONS:

  • Carbon Tracker: Follow this independent financial think tank for comprehensive analysis on the energy transition.
  • Make My Money Matter: Learn how to align your UK pension with sustainability goals.

OTHER ADVOCATES, FACTS, AND RESOURCES:

  • IPCC (2022): “Fossil fuel combustion and industrial processes represent the single largest source of CO2 (85%) and overall greenhouse gas emissions (64%) worldwide.”
  • The Guardian (2024): ‘Smoking gun proof’: fossil fuel industry knew of climate danger as early as 1954, documents show
  • The International Energy Agency (IEA) – an intergovernmental organisation specialising in sustainable energy. Explore insights from the World Energy Outlook 2023.
  • Octopus Energy – a British renewable energy group specialising in sustainable energy.
  • Mark Z. Jacobson – a Stanford University professor tracking California’s renewable energy performance. In July 2024, California celebrated 100 days of renewables supplying 100% of California’s electricity demand for a portion of each day.
  • We looked up fossil fuel subsidies and according to the IMF, globally, fossil fuel subsidies were $7 trillion or 7.1 percent of GDP in 2022.
