fantastic paper by @jptilsted.bsky.social on the distinction between defossilization and decarbonization in energy transitions
Together with @peternewell.bsky.social, I have a new paper out in RIPE.
In this paper, we explore why and how the use of fossil hydrocarbons for non-energy purposes (as raw material for synthetics) changes how we should approach the climate crisis.
