Climate Change 🌿 | Breaking our Fossil Fuel Addiction | The New York Times

Come to get informed. Leave inspired. Join us for our latest episode of Netting Zero, The New York Times's virtual event's series on climate change. 🌿

The Covid-19 crisis collapsed demand for energy, with oil prices falling to an astonishing -$37.63 per barrel in late April. But as the world looks toward recovery, can this shock be seized to break the global addiction to fossil fuels, or will the “new normal” end up looking much like the old one? How can we accelerate the rise in renewables to meet urgent global demand throughout the recovery? How will businesses with global operations adapt to support this transformation? And could a green recovery provide the necessary boost to strengthen commitment to the climate goals, which the world so badly needs?
