Why it's worth your time

Contrarian call with hard numbers: hydrocarbons still supplied 86.24% of global primary energy in 2025 (barely down from 86.65%), China burns 56% of the world's coal, and Doomberg reads the Energy Institute's own data as showing China's solar installation arc peaking. The full argument is paywalled but the readable half carries the figures — a direct counter to the clean-energy re-acceleration narrative.
