Trump promoted fossil fuels. His war is pushing the world away from them.
As oil prices spike, governments are slashing fuel use and eyeing renewables — threatening to erode global demand for fossil energy.
The Center on Global Energy Policy hosted a panel discussion on
the Paris Agreement and what it means for the various international
stakeholders including governments, the renewable energy industry
and other business sectors. Distinguished experts on the panel
included Dr. Thani Al Zeyoudi, Minister
of Climate Change and Environment for the United Arab
Emirates, Adnan Amin, Director-General
of the International Renewable Energy Agency
(IRENA), Dr. Joe Aldy, Associate Professor of
Public Policy, Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University
and a Fellow at the Center, and Delphine
Eyraud, French Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable
Development and Energy. The event was hosted by David
Sandalow, Inaugural Fellow at the Center on Global Energy
Policy.
