Natural Gas
In recent years the concept of the resource “nexus” has been both hotly debated and widely adopted in research and policy circles. It is a powerful new way to understand and better govern the myriad complex relationships between multiple resources, actors and their security concerns. Particular attention has been paid to water, energy and food interactions, but land and materials emerge as critical too.
As part of a larger handbook presenting a detailed review of current knowledge about resource nexus-related frameworks, methods and governance, Senior Research Scholar Tim Boersma and co-author Philip Andrews-Speed write on unconventional oil land gas production meeting the resource nexus.

This report examines the prospects of supplying gas from the Eastern Mediterranean to Europe from a technical, geopolitical, and economic perspective.
Achieving the goal of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 requires a substantial reduction in the share of high-emitting fossil fuels in primary energy consumption.
On October 11, 2022, Columbia University’s Center on Global Energy Policy convened a roundtable to discuss whether there is access to adequate financing for oil and gas assets to meet energy security and affordability needs during the transition to net-zero emissions.
