And so my proposal is this: remember that energy is a very big system and there is not one solution. Because we will need coal, oil and gas, we need to do everything we can to decarbonise the emissions. You know the problems of climate change but you are now chair of the oil and gas investment company L1 Energy and still in the oil business. It’s going to take us a long time to take oil and coal out of the energy system and even longer for natural gas. That’s what happened with solar energy, which is an important but small part of the energy system.
