Oil Industry Pivots From Climate Denial to Compatibility Narratives as Regulatory Pressure Mounts
The fossil fuel industry’s communication strategy has undergone multiple iterations over three decades, moving from outright denial of climate science to promoting the premise that oil and gas extraction can coexist with climate stabilization efforts—a shift that former ExxonMobil climate scientist Lindsey Gulden characterizes as the sector’s “last narrative” after previous approaches lost credibility.
Clean energy investment now outpaces fossil fuel funding at a 2:1 ratio globally—€2 trillion versus €1 trillion in 2024—marking a…
Major financial institutions directed over $1.6 trillion toward fossil fuel companies between 2021 and 2024, funding an industry launching more…
Africa’s Green Hydrogen Potential Abundant Sun and Wind Alone Won’t Beat Europe’s Costs
By 2030, Africa could emerge as a key supplier of green hydrogen to Europe—but only if European policy interventions address the continent’s prohibitive financing conditions.
Global demand for hydrogen reached nearly 100 million tonnes (Mt) in 2024, up around 2 % from the previous year and largely driven by traditional industrial uses such as refining and ammonia production.
This paper introduces the Primordial Hydrogen Continuum — a conceptual framework uniting cosmology, geochemistry, and evolutionary biology under a single physical principle: that hydrogen is the fundamental bridge between energy and structure.
OECD electricity generation reached 1,027.6 TWh in July 2025, marking a modest 2.3% year-on-year increase, yet beneath this incremental growth lies a sharply bifurcated energy transition—one where renewable capacity expansion accelerates while structural vulnerabilities in traditional power systems emerge.
The countdown has begun: in just four months, Hyvolution Paris 2026 will open its doors for a special anniversary edition,…
“For more than two centuries, humanity has been producing hydrogen in its bound form — hydrocarbons — without realizing it. Oil and gas are not primary energy sources — they are secondary compounds, products of hydrogen degassing from the mantle and its reaction with carbon in the crust.”
The International Maritime Organisation faces a decisive vote this week on whether to impose binding emissions targets on an industry responsible for moving 90% of global trade.
