Solar Is Set To Outstrip Fossil Fuels

<p>Saving the planet can sometimes feel like an uphill battle. It seems like billions in oil money and myopic politicians thwart any significant efforts to move towards net-zero. But a new study has found that our transition to renewable energy isn&rsquo;t just beneficial but inevitable. In other words, the demise of the fossil industry has already begun, and meeting net-zero by 2050 is potentially easier than we previously thought.</p> <p>This study comes from the University of Exeter and University College London researchers. They analysed recent technological and economic advances in renewable energies and tried to predict how this industry will grow in the coming years. They found that solar power has reached an &ldquo;irreversible tipping point&rdquo; that will see it become the world&rsquo;s primary energy source by 2050.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/predict/solar-is-set-to-outstrip-fossil-fuels-62e3d8b31802"><strong>Learn More</strong></a></p>
