flag The International Energy Agency's new Current Policy Scenario predicts oil and natural gas demand won't peak until after 2030, with both fuels continuing to rise through 2050, while coal use peaks in the 2030s but remains over 50% higher than expected. flag The report, released under pressure from Western governments, reflects current policies without new climate actions, showing fossil fuels still dominating energy use. flag It underscores the world's significant shortfall in meeting the 1.5°C goal of the Paris Agreement, highlighting the need for stronger government intervention to accelerate the clean energy transition.
