Here's how it works: build renewable energy infrastructure in global South countries, use the energy to produce hydrogen fuel, and then ship the fuel to Europe. Voila! Europe can maintain high energy use without having to build lots of renewable energy infrastructure domestically.

But of course the land use and the conflicts have not just disappeared - they've just been offshored... to places where people are too poor and disenfranchised to fight back, or where rebellions can be put down with force, and rich people in Europe don't have to think about it.
