How to cut out the 'fossil gas middle man'.

The fossil fuel industry tells us that natural gas is an absolutely indispensable 'transition fuel' to help us get to net zero emissions by 2050 and most governments in the West have, until recently, pretty much toed that line. But the world changed (again!) in 2022, and now a new report shows how much more economically smart it would be to simply jump straight from coal to renewables and cut out the 'natural gas middle-man' completely.
