Event Description: Major transitions between technologies, like gas to electric lights, may seem quick when we look back on them. But transitions generally take decades. During this time, progress is inevitably punctuated by setbacks as the proponents of the status quo fight the prospect of change. This bumpy path is clear in our current transition from dirty fossil fuel-based power to clean renewable power from wind and solar. As disinformation and political lobbying by fossil fuel interests accelerate, the giddy jubilation of 2022 has given way to discouragement. But take heart – data show that fossil fuel use has already peaked in some countries. The demise of fossil fuels is now inevitable!
