CONT

Sous pression croissante, la plupart des compagnies pétro-gazières du monde occidental investissent dans les énergies vertes, mais sans abandonner les énergies fossiles, arguant qu'il faut répondre à la demande de pétrole et de gaz, au risque de rater l'objectif de la neutralité carbone en 2050.
