Wind and solar grow, but fossil fuels rise too

Original: Environment: Wind and solar are increasing but so are fossil fuels

Global energy commentary highlights a paradox: wind and solar power capacity continues to expand rapidly, yet fossil fuel use is also climbing rather than declining. Analysts point out that renewables are adding to the energy mix without yet displacing coal, oil and gas, raising questions about whether climate targets can be met at current rates of transition.

Why now: Debate over whether renewable growth is actually displacing fossil fuels or merely supplementing them is a persistent climate concern.
