While the eradication of leaded fuel is a major landmark achievement for every nation on Earth, the agency also warned that fossil fuel use must still be substantially reduced if we can venture to hope for a brighter future than the one suggested in recent and forthcoming climate change disasters. -- Interesting Engineering
