I suspect it will because the old and gas supplies problems are structural now. Significant chunk of the infrastructure in the Gulf is destroyed already, the tankers aren't moving, and not likely to start moving any time soon. Even when they do it's going to be a long time before supply levels can go to anything like prior levels. So, we're now looking at years of disruption. That's very different from any other energy shock in living memory. So, countries will either have to start moving towards renewables or their economies are going to start crumbling. Either way the emissions will be going down. And by the time this all blows over we're going to be living in a whole new world.
