Energy and climate: the world accelerates transformation, Poland remains divided

The global energy sector is undergoing dynamic changes – China has reached a 30% share of renewable energy sources in energy production, and Europe is intensifying climate action. Meanwhile, coal mining in Poland is declining, but society remains divided on the causes of climate change. Furthermore, Germany has found a way to circumvent sanctions on Russian gas internationally. How do these developments shape the future of energy and climate policy?
