Oil and gas avoided censure in Glasgow for the 26th time. Let's not make it 27
Investor and state-owned oil companies in the G20 find common cause in watering down climate ambition; we need to confront their influence The Glasgow Climate Pact struck on Saturday named and shamed coal, in a symbolic first for the UN climate talks. Big coal producers such as India and China resisted but they couldn’t escape the pressure inside (and outside, especially from youth climate strikers). As Cop26 president the UK was obsessed with getting something on coal at the summit.

Dario, welcome to Energy Central. What immediately struck me, and will immediate rankle any scientist, is the idea one can consider possible future actions of corporations a science - or that it's possible to perform a study, using scientific method, that will arrive at a verifiable conclusion.

Decades of neoliberal austerity and “the market made me do it” politics, which boosted inequality in most countries, have also created pent-up demand to change the rules of globalization and international trade.
Naming the Polluter Elite
We are currently at a moment of extreme and rising global inequality. But rarely are the links made between the extremely wealthy and the personal liability these individuals have in contributing to potentially irreversible climate change and mass species extinction.
