The unprecedented closure of the Strait of Hormuz by Iran has led to the largest disruption of oil supply in history, creating a potential tipping point towards clean energy solutions.
Fossil fuels, long seen as dependable, are now viewed as costly and unreliable, prompting over 50 nations to meet in Colombia to strategize a move away from oil, coal, and gas.
In response to the crisis, countries are exploring alternative energy sources, with a significant focus on electric vehicles and renewables, signaling a global shift in energy paradigms.
