Data suggests no new fossil fuel boom despite rising emerging economies
Original: "As emerging economies and global living standards rise, is the world in for another fossil fuel boom? The data says not
A Deutsche Welle analysis by Kira Schacht examines whether rising living standards in emerging economies will drive a new global boom in fossil fuels. Drawing on data journalism, the piece concludes the data points the other way: growth in developing countries is not translating into a surge in fossil fuel use, countering a common assumption about energy demand.
Why now: Ongoing debate over whether economic growth in developing nations will stall or sustain the global transition away from fossil fuels.
