Nope. Fact check for ya. Global coal demand set to flat-line or increase until 2040. As a percentage of total energy demand it will drop but the actual amount of coal required is meant to increase slightly. Check out the free IEA reports on this.
How is this the case? Energy demand globally is set to increase massively in developing countries. Most of this will be met by growth in other energy sources.
European coal demand will drop by 2040 but asian coal demand grows significantly particularly in south east asia (vietnam, thailand, indo etc).
