"The world is likely to build so many fossil-fuelled power stations, energy-guzzling
factories and inefficient buildings in the next five years that it will
become impossible to hold global warming to safe levels, and the last
chance of combating dangerous climate change will be "lost for ever", according to the most thorough analysis yet of world energy infrastructure.
"Anything
built from now on that produces carbon will do so for decades, and this
'lock-in' effect will be the single factor most likely to produce
irreversible climate change, the world's foremost authority on energy
economics has found. If this is not rapidly changed within the next five
years, the results are likely to be disastrous."
