Bjorn Lomborg: ‘Renewables near historic low & increasing so slowly’ that ‘100% renewables will take nearly four centuries’
The world gets 14.2% of its energy from renewables
That’s near the record-low of 11.1% in 2007 and far from average since 1800 of 47%
Increase since 2010 so slow that, on current trends, world will reach 100% renewables in 2392https://t.co/5CnwvAEmor pic.twitter.com/dE1gvTWBKI

The world is mostly fossil-fuel powered and will remain so for a long time
on current trends, it will reach 0% fossil fuels in 2401https://t.co/aIhr95A8kw pic.twitter.com/F7HYr9TYIT
