August 16, 2024 – In this weekend's edition of the Financial Sense Newshour, we feature an insightful interview with Robert Rapier, a renowned chemical engineer and energy expert. Rapier provides a compelling analysis of the current state of global energy consumption and emissions trends, challenging the prevalent narrative surrounding energy transition and carbon reduction efforts.
Drawing on comprehensive data, Rapier demonstrates that fossil fuel usage, particularly coal, continues to set new records annually. This trend is especially pronounced in China, India, and the broader Asia-Pacific region, where emissions are increasing significantly.
The interview offers a critical examination of the disconnect between climate policy rhetoric and actual energy consumption patterns. Rapier provides a nuanced perspective on the real-world impact of climate policies and regulations on the global economy.
This episode presents an essential listening opportunity for those seeking a fact-based understanding of the current energy landscape and its implications for future environmental and economic policies.
