Natural Gas Indispensable to Lower Carbon Energy in Future

A transition to renewables is underway across the world to address climate change and natural gas as an indispensable part of the global energy mix, as it can play a key role to help the world shift to a lower carbon energy future and protect the environment.
Oil Minister Javad Owji made the statement at the 23rd annual ministerial meeting of Gas Exporting Countries Forum (GECF) held via videoconference on Tuesday, the Oil Ministry’s news portal reported.
“The high use of fossil fuels like coal and crude oil without measures to mitigate greenhouse gases has had global climate change implications,” he said, adding that natural gas is needed to limit the impact.
