Combating climate change

How can we secure energy supply for the future while at the same time combating climate change? We believe there is no single answer to that crucial question, but rather a number of separate, complementary measures to be used in combination in order to manage and lower our greenhouse gas emissions.

Energy supply

We must combine fossil fuels with low-carbon energy sources to meet rising energy demand over the long term and secure energy supply while at the same time protecting the environment.

Development

Our activities place considerable expectations on us and it is our duty to understand and address them. Not only is this our responsibility, it is also the key to achieving shared and sustainable human and economic development.
