Fossil fuel companies are trying to exploit this war for their gain. We can’t let them | Jamie Henn

Without fossil fuel, and Europe's dependence on it, Putin wouldn't have so much power. We need clean energy now, but big oil has other plans

Never ones to let a good crisis go to waste, the fossil fuel industry and their allies have taken to the airwaves over the last few days to try and use the Russian invasion of Ukraine as an excuse for greater oil and gas development.

It's the classic shock doctrine that we've come to expect from big oil, and unless our politicians are wise enough to see through it, it's a strategy that will continue to undermine our ability to take action on climate change over the decade to come.
