 An example was President Joe Biden who, going back on his electoral promise, approved the Willow Project in March 2023, which allows progress in the expansion of the oil frontier in the Alaskan Arctic, thus endangering an extremely fragile and already punished by the melting of ice due to global warming.

Another example comes from the European Union, which, while seeking to expand the European Green Deal, opted to return to coal in mid-2022, using the energy crisis accelerated by the Phone Number List in Ukraine as justification. Thus, in January 2023, the German government ordered the demolition of a village to make way for the expansion of a lignite coal mine, the most polluting type of coal among fossil fuels. At the same time,EU to allocate part of those funds to the development of green hydrogen10.



The type of post-fossil logic promoted by the “Decarbonization Consensus” therefore leads to a corporate, technocratic, neocolonial and unsustainable transition. Numerous projections warn of the fact that, considered in this way, the energy transition is unsustainable from a metabolic point of view. The bm itself warned in 2020 that mineral extraction such as graphite, lithium and cobalt could see an increase of almost 500% between now and 2050, to meet the growing demand for clean energy technologies.
