"Cutting useful subsidies while showing blind confidence in immature technologies are two sides of the same inertia," warns Jean-Yves Pidoux, the former director of the SIL.
"Investing in renewable energy proves to be more profitable than maintaining the current system of subsidies for fossil fuels. According to the UN, a global reduction in pollution could save up to $4.2 trillion per year by 2030," explains Jean-Yves Pidoux.
