Original Note:
fossil energy is not a subsidized industry , it is a heavily taxed industry, what is presented as subsidies here is in fact the results of a taxation that is less that some people wanted. the term used for this in this document is : "undercharging for environmental costs" https://www.imf.org/en/Blogs/Articles/2023/08/24/fossil-fuel-subsidies-surged-to-record-7-trillion
