Al-Ghais pointed out that, “When discussing climate change, there is no single solution suitable for everyone, and in order to move forward, there must be several paths, not one path.”
A person connected to the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries revealed to Al-Sharq that OPEC “aspires to more effective participation in the COP29 summit” hosted by the Azerbaijani capital, Baku, from November 11 to 22, 2024, especially since the conference will be held in a member state of the OPEC+ alliance.
The informed person added that OPEC will confirm during its participation in COP 29 that there is no single solution or method to secure future and sustainable energy, but rather it must rely on all sources of energy, fossil and renewable. “Without fossil energy, the world will not be able to provide safe and sustainable energy, especially in light of increasing demand,” he said.
