While the UN climate talks seek to slow climate change, the fossil fuel lobby still argues the benefits of traditional fuels, reports Kieran Cooke, a founding editor of Climate News Network.
The fossil fuel lobby is still at it. The advocates of traditional fuels are determined to push their case at the climate change talkshere – even though all the evidence says that the continued use of coal, oil and gas threatens severe climate change and the whole future of the planet.
According to a new report those lobbyists are not only endangering future generations – they are also digging a deep financial hole for themselves, virtually throwing away multi-million dollar investments.
