Air pollution from burning fossil fuels leads to at least 4 million premature deaths every year. Even if climate change wasn’t a thing, we still should switch to other forms of energy.

Here is the appropriate graphic from the think tank Climate Analytics: The black line is important. It shows the annual emissions of the past. The green line, in turn, shows what happens if we continue the current expansion rates of renewable energies. #climate #climatechange
