An article published on the World Economic Forum (WEF) website has called for the world to transition to “green energy,” insisting that it is the key to protecting democracy.
In the article, Colorado State University economics professor Edward Barbier claims the world is facing two global crises of climate change and the decline of democracy. In order to sustain global warming below 1.5 degrees Celsius (34.7 degrees Fahrenheit), he said the world must take immediate action and reduce carbon emissions, which includes the increased use of green energy technologies.
