Amidst political and environmental challenges, renewable energy sources have continued to surge on the global stage. In 2025, both solar and wind energy surpassed coal as a major energy source, reflecting a significant shift towards sustainable practices. This trend is further evidenced by the emergence of Indian company Suzlon Energy Ltd, which has been recognized as the second most sustainable company in Asia Pacific for its contributions to wind and solar energy. These developments showcase the growing momentum of renewable energy infrastructure and its pivotal role in combating climate change. However, this progress is not without obstacles, as seen in the plight of environmental activists in the Philippines who were wrongly accused of terrorism for promoting renewable power in local communities, resulting in frozen funds and delayed climate projects.
