Hope is contagious and science is king: 10 big lessons on ending the fossil fuel era.

 After a landmark climate meeting in Santa Marta, Colombia, where nearly 60
countries gathered to work out how to end the production and use of
planet-heating fossil fuels, what have we learned? The single most
important thing to come from the first Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels
conference, in Santa Marta, has been a change of mood. Whereas the UN’s
annual climate summits, or Cops, can often feel stuck and frustrating, with
countries circling the same topics without resolution, nearly every
delegate in Colombia felt liberated. In a world of climate denial and
misinformation, Santa Marta was a shining example of science-led decision
making. Hundreds of experts, academics and scientists inspired and informed
the launch of three major initiatives on the energy transition.
