Keith Clarke鈥檚 quick quotes
On engineers: 鈥淓ngineering is sexy: without engineering you won鈥檛 get carbon reduction or any chance of social cohesion鈥 On transport: 鈥淚nfratructure is fundamental. In Nigeria the cost of transporting farm produce is 75% higher because there are no roads鈥 On renewables: 鈥淵ou are going to have to put bets on all renewables because the outcome is unpredictable鈥 On China: 鈥淧opulation control is the biggest mitigation against climate change and their commitment to renewables is astonishing鈥 Exporting energy: 鈥淚t鈥檚 the Sahara鈥檚 choice whether they build power plants to supply Europe. It鈥檚 not our choice.鈥
