With companies doubling down on oil and gas, unless investors or government push back or try to force changes, is it possible to meet climate goals, or is that not possible under these current. The move appears to be a sign of an increasingly pragmatic approach to energy and climate change by companies, even in europe, which has been more aggressive pursuing environmental goals than the united states The world has changed since the paris agreement was adopted decade ago with ambitious goals to tackle climate change. Outlook analysts predict that europe will continue to see a mix of short‑term fossil‑fuel investments and long‑term renewable expansion The challenge for policymakers will be to design frameworks that encourage this dual approach without compromising the continent’s climate commitments. To keep profits rolling in, oil and gas companies want to turn fossil fuels into a mounting pile of packaging and other plastic products
