Companies still investing too much in fossil fuels,

Fossil fuel companies are investing twice as much in oil and gas as they should if the world hopes to limit rising global temperatures to avert a climate catastrophe, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). The world’s energy watchdog said that the sector still had “minimal” engagement with the global clean energy transition, and continued to contribute just 1% of clean energy investment globally. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/nov/23/companies-still-investing-too-much-in-fossil-fuels-global-energy-watchdog-says

      This is absurd having them contribute to 1% on clean energy sounds like a joke.

                              The report from the International Energy Agency (IEA) underscores a concerning trend in the energy sector. The revelation that fossil fuel companies are investing twice as much in oil and gas as is compatible with efforts to limit global temperature increases raises significant alarms. The minimal engagement with the global clean energy transition and the mere 1% contribution to clean energy investment highlight the industry's slow progress in aligning with climate goals.
