Examining the Need for Fossil Fuels

Hotly contested fossil fuels have been the driving force behind much of the world’s flourishing, giving billions of people worldwide access to low-cost, reliable energy.

You’ve heard about the “climate emergency” that’s pervasive in the media, but how much of that is accurate?
