Report of the week: Renewable Energy Network Global Status Report

This weeks report is a review of global renewable energy capacity and potential. This is a facinating report which is perticularly wellcome as it provides one clear example of real progress in the fight against climate change. A previous report by the tyndall centre looked at climate change mitigation as a three part problem: 1. Reduction in energy usage 2. Increase in energy efficiency and 3. Decarbonisation of energy supply. It looks like the world is making rapid progress on this third point...wether this progress will be sufficiently rapid will depend on future policy decisions as a result of political will, encouraged by multinational negotiations.
