Climate change is a result of a variety of influences, a major one being energy. The energy we generate and consume accounts for 73% of total greenhouse gas emissions globally. We heavily depend on burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and fossil gas (or natural gas) as a source of energy. Despite the movement towards more sustainable energy sources, both carbon dioxide and methane emissions associated with global fossil fuel production and use continue to increase. Globally, 61% of our energy comes from fossil fuels and 39% of energy comes from what is known as ‘low-carbon’ sources, such as nuclear or renewable energy such as solar, wind, hydro-power and biomass. Let’s look at what are the main types of energy we use, what are the hindrances towards adopting cleaner energy plans and why the transition has not been accelerated despite climate activists calling for this drastic change.

Over the years, we’ve observed our men bearing the weight of societal expectations, a burden that compels them to stifle their need to express and convey their innate emotions. Whether this repression stems from the persistent intergenerationally enforced stigma, or the absurd notion of delicate masculinity, remains an open question, hanging tensely in the air.
Have you ever wondered what is the point of emotions? In the current pace of life (and economy!), emotions often seem like a roadblock to our pursuit of success and inner peace. With so many of them to contend with, it's easy to see why many view emotions as a hindrance. But a psychological, physiological phenomenon that has taken billions of years to evolve must have a purpose right? Well, it does!
