The world's demand for fossil fuels has decreased by almost 10% amid coronavirus measures and reportedly many energy economists believe it may not recover from the crisis. A report by the London-based think tank Carbon Tracker concludes that the coronavirus pandemic may have pushed the fossil fuel industry into "terminal decline" as demand for oil and gas decreases while governments aim to accelerate the clean energy transition. It predicts that an annual 2% decline in demand for fossil fuels could cause the future profits of oil, gas and coal companies to collapse from an estimated $39tn to $14tn. However, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance more than half a trillion dollars worldwide are currently intended to be poured into high-carbon industries. Preliminary disclosures from the Bank of England's Covid Corporate Financing Facility indicate that billions of pounds of taxpayer support are intended to be funneled to fossil fuel companies. According to Reclaim Finance the European Central Bank intends to allocate as much as €220bn (£193bn) to fossil fuel industries. An assessment by Ernst & Young finds that a stimulus program that focuses on renewable energy and climate-friendly projects could create more than 100,000 direct jobs across Australia and estimates that every $1m spent on renewable energy and exports creates 4.8 full-time jobs in renewable infrastructure while $1m on fossil fuel projects would only create 1.7 full-time jobs. Secretary-general of the OECD club of rich countries José Ángel Gurría, called upon countries to "seize this opportunity [of the coronavirus recovery] to reform subsidies and use public funds in a way that best benefits people and the planet". During the pandemic many people have started cycling and bike sales surged. Small-scale farmers have been embracing digital technologies as a way to directly sell produce, and community-supported agriculture and direct-sell delivery systems are on the rise. Beyond benefits to smaller online grocery stores which predominently sell organic and more local food, weekly grocery deliveries can be a better choice than individual trips to a store. Online grocery shopping has grown substantially during the pandemic. As a consequence of the unprecedented use of disposable face masks, a significant number of masks were discarded in the natural environment, adding to the worldwide burden of plastic waste. Some have noted that planned stimulus package could be designed to speed up renewable energy transitions and to boost energy resilience. Researchers of the World Resources Institute have outlined a number of reasons for investments in public transport as well as cycling and walking during and after the pandemic.
