The FT has consistently excellent climate coverage. This one is a bit of a depressing read, but also enlightening.
It's quite clear that the vast majority of growth in coal use is in Asia, mostly China and India, and it more than offsets the shrinking use of coal in Europe and the Americas.
My great grandfather died after a coal mining accident, my kids don't even really know what coal is. I have to hope that the trajectory away from coal will be accelerated in Asia compared to Europe.
