IEA Warns of Complacency, Return to Business as Usual in Latest Report

SUGAR LAND, TEXAS--October 14, 2021--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Propelled by rising concerns over global climate change, the International Energy Agency (IEA) (Paris, France) has dramatically increased its analytic work on energy markets and climate change in recent years, which has enabled it to produce detailed and complex projections about energy use and carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. This year's version of its flagship publication, the World Energy Outlook (WEO), features thematic and title parallels to the Star Wars movie series: If the theme of last year's WEO was "The Rise of Renewables," then its WEO-2021 could be titled, "The Revenge of the Status Quo."
