Climate Industrial Complex Left Clueless As Fossil Fuels Proliferate

cop26 protestIt has been a little more than a month since the United Nations climate meeting at Glasgow, yet global use of fossil fuels has increased rapidly.

For instance, U.S. President Joe Biden canceled domestic oil projects and vowed to stop funding for international fossil fuel projects.

But as fuel prices rose, Biden responded to his self-induced energy insecurity by releasing 50 million barrels of oil reserves and even called for an increase in domestic oil production.

Within a span of a few months, the U.S. president went from being a climate savior to a climate villain. Though many may classify his actions as temporary solutions (to a non-existent problem), the rest of the world sees through the veneer of climate politics and the hypocrisy within.

There is nothing that the climate industrial complex can do about the situation in the U.S. or other parts of the world. In fact, in Asia, the production of fossil fuels is proliferating.

India and China Goes Full Throttle on Coal 

As climate doomsayers met in November in Glasgow for the annual U.N. meeting, Asian political leaders promoted policies that sought to increase fossil fuel production — largely because of lessons learned from acute coal shortages in India and China earlier in the year.

The Indian government has opened more coal mines and has allocated new mines to private players through auctions. India’s coal minister has asked the government’s coal production arm, Coal India Limited, to meet an annual target of 1 billion tonnes by 2024.

Meanwhile, China is taking similar measures to ensure its coal supply. Coal production for November hit record highs as Beijing scrambled to ensure enough of the fuel to meet winter needs.

October 2021 witnessed the highest monthly production since March 2015. Overall, the first 11 months of this year accounted for 3.67 billion tonnes of coal, which is 4.2% higher than 2020.

Though India and China have managed to overcome the recent shortage in coal reserves, domestic production must be complemented by imports. Hence, the price of coal from Australia and Indonesia remains high.

With the Omicron variant expected to have only a minimal impact on the economy, we can expect sustained demand for coal through 2022.

Oil Futures on a High and India Cashes In on Imports 

India is also keen on securing its oil sources as OPEC has forecasted a high global demand in 2022. Oil from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Iraq were bought in large quantities by Asian countries.

India’s Minister of Petroleum and Natural Gas reported that the country would acquire “massive additional areas for oil exploration and production” by 2025.

“As far as the government of India is concerned, we are going to step on the accelerator in terms of exploration and production in a very big way,” said the minister in November.

A UAE firm owned by India’s richest man is all set to import crude oil, petroleum, and petrochemical products in December. The country’s major state-owned oil firms and refineries have already secured supply for the first half of 2022.

Gas prices at fuel stations remained high in India throughout the year. However, the federal government intervened by releasing millions of barrels of oil from strategic reserves, prices have come down drastically.

Meanwhile, the country’s aviation minister has made an open call to states to reduce jet fuel prices in order to “increase air traffic.”

So, if anyone is thinking that fossil fuels are dead, they should think again. The 2.6 billion people in India and China will continue to use fossil fuels as their primary energy source until 2070.  Even the most advanced European and Scandinavian countries are witnessing a revival of the fossil fuel sector.

It is as if the anti-fossil climate conference never happened this year. As if promises to end fossil fuels are nothing but vapors from the incense offered at the altar of climate drama — only to be consumed by an inescapable energy reality.

    There is noting more sobering than feeling cold. So cold your hands and feet are numb and you can’t stop shaking from the shivers. Those people who think that is okay for others but not for themselves, deserve what ever comes their way.

    Beyond the current scramble for coal to keep the wheels of civilisation turning, and people warm, it is time we looked beyond today and asked. what will be do if the weather is actually cooling? How will we keep society functioning if the temps drop by say 3 degrees average? The answer is simple and it’s been staring up in the face for years.
    It is NUCLEAR POWER.

    If we are as clever as we seem to think, we need to start building nuclear power stations for when we transition from coal (yes that will happen one day) but also to protect millions of lives in places where the weather is too cold for local residents to survive.

    Those who think we need to end all use of Fossil Fuels over t his fake crisis should take up living in a Grass Hut for whole year and see if they cam hack it
