The age of oil and gas exploration is already over and no new fields will need to be developed if the world succeeds in bringing global warming under control, the International Energy Agency has said.
In a landmark report on the path to net zero carbon emissions by 2050, the organisation (IEA) says that oil demand will need to drop by 75pc over the next three decades - rendering the need to exploit new reserves obsolete. No further coal mines will be needed either.
