Description

Because of climate change geopolitical structures might shift. The ice of the North Pole for instance is melting. Superpowers like Russia have shown their interest in the huge oil and gas supplies there. Does a new cold war lurks at the horizon? Other example: in order to reduce CO2 countries are using more renewable energy sources. Can they become independent of gas- and oil suppliers like Russia and the Middle East or will other dependencies arise? Coby van der Linde, professor of Geopolitics & Energy (University of Groningen) and director of the Clingendael International Energy Program, sheds light on shifting perspectives.
