Is Saudi Arabia really quitting oil?

Saudi Arabia has ambitious green energy goals, aiming to go carbon neutral by 2060. But what does that mean for their fossil-fuel production? Well, the Kingdom is aiming to have its cake and eat it too. #SaudiArabia #FossilFuels #renewableenergy #planeta Disclaimer: After our deadline in April 2024, reports emerged that Saudi officials had greatly reduced the proposed size of The Line for budgetary reasons. At the time of publishing, those reports have not been officially confirmed. We're destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn't need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we'll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess.
