International Energy Agency

Climate-change skeptics like to call environmentalists “alarmists” because of their call for urgent action to reduce greenhouse-gas emissions. The skeptics say the science is too uncertain, that there’s no rush to act, and those who argue otherwise are sanctimonious lefties out of touch with reality.

In its annual progress report, the International Energy Agency (IEA) unsurprisingly called for more urgency and action from nations across the globe in the development and deployment of renewable energy and energy efficiency technologies.

Wikileaks has been credited with spilling the beans on stories ranging from torture to tax evasion but this week they might have lifted the veil on the biggest issue yet: peak oil.

Renewable energy and clean technologies could be part of the solution for ending world poverty.
