The global energy supply became 6% cleaner from 1971 to 1990,in response to the oil shocks of the 1970s. The world must slow the growth of energy demand as well as make its energy supply cleaner, the IEA said. Without CCS, the world will have to abandon its reliance on fossil fuels much sooner—and that will come at a cost.
