COTW: Emissions by Sector

The chart shows clearly that energy production and use is responsible for almost three-quarters of the world's carbon emission. Simply put, the planet must become more energy efficient and use sustainable methods of energy production if it hopes to avoid the worse consequences of anthropomorphic climate change. Burning fossil fuels must be largely phased out in favor of wind, solar, geothermal and other alternative energy sources. The effects of global warming are increasingly apparent if you are deliberately ignorant for reasons of profit: meterologists have run out of hurricane names, and are up to Eta in the Greek alphabet. The fire season in the west has been the most destructive in living memory. The Arctic icecap is melting so fast that extraction companies are lining up to mine Greenland's ore deposits. So Joe is absolutely right when he says that oil and gas are polluting and that we must transition to a sustainable energy future. Left or right, we all live on the same planet and the delusional lemmings have to be ignored. It is not 'socialism', it is survival.
