Climate change activist Al Gore questions the sale of coal to India as it advances in renewable energy sources while carefully not mentioning the controversial Adani coal mine.

Former US vice president Al Gore has taken a swipe at Adani during a climate change conference in Brisbane, casting doubt on the proposed Carmichael mine's viability as India moves away from coal-fired power.

Mr Gore said the statistics showed India was rapidly shifting towards solar and wind energy and not investing in coal."That is one of the reasons why not a single global financial institution, after doing the financial analysis, would put any money up for the Adani mine, not a single cent," Mr Gore said.In March 2019, coal produced 56.4 per cent of India's energy, with hydro plants producing 15 per cent and solar and wind about 18 per cent.

"I am trying to tread carefully here, but what do they know that some people in other countries don't seem to know?" Mr Gore said. "This is the future, we are getting away from these dirty fossil fuels," he said, praising the recent push into electric vehicles in Australia and New Zealand."On a global basis we get as much energy from the sun in one hour as the entire global economy uses in a full year," he said.

Mr Gore drew a loud laugh when he told how Kentucky's famous coal museum has recently installed solar panels. He appreciated both Queensland and New South Wales governments committing to having zero net emissions by 2050.
