Clearly, gas is not a 'bridge fuel' to renewable energy, nor a viable climate solution for North Carolina – it's a fast track to climate disaster.

The third and final installment in a series of blogs on the IEA's Special Report on gas and energy transitions. This blog discusses the IEA's analysis of methane leakage and its faith in carbon capture and storage.

The second in a series of blogs on the IEA's 2019 report on the role of gas in energy transitions. This part explores the climate risks inherent in the report's main policy prescription.

The IEA latest report on gas all but makes the case against gas as a "bridge fuel". But still finds a way to push for more of the controversial fuel.

For IEA scenario reform, the devil is in the details. The IEA must develop a 1.5°C scenario that is aligned with the goals of the Paris climate agreement and address the concerns of key WEO users. Anything less would be easy to discount as greenwashing or another example of the pro-fossil fuel bias at the IEA.

The European Investment Bank (EIB) is the world’s largest multilateral lender, bigger even than the World Bank.

No matter how much spin they put on it, Canada is heading for its Kodak-climate moment.

Gas is dirty, expensive, and unnecessary - so why is the fossil fuel industry calling it a 'bridge fuel'? Our new report unpacks and debunks the enduring myth that gas can form a 'bridge' to a safe climate.

We know that people power can stop dangerous fossil fuel projects like the proposed Line 3 tar sands oil pipeline in Minnesota, because we’ve proved it over and over again – and recently we've had two more big wins.

Shell's climate claims don't add up - a closer look at the oil giant's plans.
