In\u00a0Al Jazeera\u2019s<\/em>\u00a0article,\u00a0\u201cWorld\u2019s \u2018fossil fuel obsession\u2019 threatens billions of lives: Amnesty,\u201d<\/a>\u00a0reporter Jillian Kestler-D\u2019Amours repeats Amnesty International\u2019s (AI) claim that fossil fuels are \u201ca major source of human rights violations\u201d and an \u201cexistential threat\u201d to billions of people. This is patently false. Data clearly demonstrate the development and use of fossil fuels over the past century have saved lives, powered prosperity, and improved the human condition around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Al Jazeera quotes AI\u2019s Secretary General, Agnes Callamard, who declared \u201c[the] age of fossil fuels must end now\u201d because fossil fuel use is \u201cendangering billions of lives.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Far from threatening billions of lives, fossil fuels have saved billions of lives and made it possible to feed and house the world\u2019s eight billion people, a prospect unimaginable just a century ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coal, oil, and natural gas have powered the greatest improvements in living standards, health, and life expectancy in human history. Before their widespread use, the average human lifespan hovered around 30 years. Today, thanks to affordable energy, global life expectancy exceeds 70<\/a> years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Graph<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Fossil fuels made that possible by providing the energy for clean water, reliable food production, modern medicine, and transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What AI and\u00a0Al Jazeera<\/em>\u00a0omit is the fact that every aspect of modern life, from hospitals to housing, depends on fossil-fuel-derived materials and products. Crude oil derivatives are used to create thousands of essential goods\u2014fertilizers, plastics, lubricants, clothing, and most remarkably,\u00a0life-saving pharmaceuticals<\/strong><\/a>. Petroleum feedstocks are used to synthesize aspirin, ibuprofen, penicillin, and many chemotherapy drugs. These are not pollutants; they are products that keep humanity alive. The U.S. Department of Energy put together an\u00a0informational flyer<\/a>\u00a0that says:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Petrochemicals derived from oil and natural gas make the manufacturing of over 6,000 everyday products and high-tech devices possible. Major petrochemicals\u2014including ethylene, propylene, acetylene, benzene, and toluene, as well as natural gas constituents like methane, propane, and ethane\u2014are the feedstock chemicals for the production of many of the items we use and depend on every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern life relies on the availability of these products that are made in the United States and across the globe. We zero in on some of these common household and commercial products below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If fossil fuels were the \u201cexistential threat\u201d Al Jazeera <\/em>claims, the past century of unprecedented human progress would be inexplicable. Since 1750, global GDP has grown by more than 3,000 percent seen in Figure 1A, and extreme poverty has plummeted from more than 80 percent of humanity in 1800 to less than 10 percent in 2017, seen in Figure 1B.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This global transformation to our modern society coincided precisely with global fossil fuel consumption, seen in Figure 2 below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Graph<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Moreover, AI\u2019s and Al Jazeera\u2019s attempt to link fossil fuels to global mortality from weather events is factually false. As Climate at a Glance: Deaths from Extreme Weather<\/a><\/em> documents, climate-related deaths have declined by more than 95 percent over the past century<\/strong>, even as CO\u2082 levels rose. Fossil fuels didn\u2019t increase danger, they enabled resilience. Modern energy powers emergency response systems, builds seawalls, and provides heating, air conditioning, protecting billions from heat and cold alike, and refrigeration, preventing spoilage that in the past lead to millions of deaths from food poisoning and hunger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Likewise, Climate at a Glance: Temperature-Related Deaths<\/a> <\/em>shows that cold kills far more people than heat<\/strong>\u2014nearly 10 times as many globally. Modest warming, aided by cheap energy for heating and cooling, has reduced net temperature-related mortality. That\u2019s the opposite of Amnesty\u2019s claim that fossil fuels are killing people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change\u2019s (IPCC) reports undercut Al Jazeera\u2019s claims. The IPCC\u2019s Sixth Assessment Report<\/em> finds no clear trend of worsening extreme weather<\/strong>\u2014<\/a>including hurricanes, floods, or droughts. The supposed \u201cclimate crisis\u201d invoked by Amnesty rests on computer model projections, not observational data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amnesty\u2019s statement that fossil fuel infrastructure \u201cis a major source of human rights violations\u201d is not evidence; it\u2019s advocacy. While the group highlights alleged pollution and indigenous rights disputes, it ignores the far greater human rights benefits of affordable energy. Nations that use more fossil fuels enjoy higher education rates, lower infant mortality, cleaner drinking water, and longer life spans. The correlation is consistent and overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amnesty\u2019s demand that \u201cthe age of fossil fuel must end now\u201d would, if taken literally, plunge billions into poverty and premature death. Even The Washington Post<\/em><\/a> admits that without fossil fuels, economic production would collapse, electricity would become unreliable, and global food output would plummet. The humanitarian catastrophe would be immediate and catastrophic. As they say<\/a>, \u201cIf fossil fuel production were stopped tomorrow, the world would quickly grind to a halt.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The irony is that Amnesty International\u2019s own advocacy<\/em> relies on fossil fuels<\/em>. Every activist flown to the COP30 summit in Brazil, every smartphone used to record protests, every banner and microphone\u2014all exist thanks to petroleum-based materials and energy. By parroting Amnesty\u2019s talking points without skepticism, Al Jazeera<\/em> trades journalism for advocacy. Contrary to the premise of Al Jazeera\u2019s story, fossil fuels remain the foundation of modern civilization and will continue to be so until scalable, reliable, relatively inexpensive alternatives emerge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The data clearly demonstrate that as fossil fuel use has expanded, global health has improved, lifespans have grown, infant mortality, starvation, and hunger have dramatically declined, and prosperity has reached previously unimagined levels, delivering to billions of people previously relegated to impoverished lives, everyday conveniences that kings and rulers just a century ago could not have imagined.  If there\u2019s an \u201cobsession\u201d here, it\u2019s not humanity\u2019s with energy\u2014it\u2019s the media\u2019s obsession with climate alarmism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
