The claim is misleading. Fossil fuel subsidies ($7T globally in 2022 per IMF) distort markets and inflate long-term costs via externalities ($8.2T projected by 2030), though they curb short-term inflation by lowering prices. Renewables are cheaper (LCOE: solar/wind $20-50/MWh vs. gas $40-100/MWh, per 2025 analyses) and more efficient, with subsidies (e.g., IRA ~$1T) driving down costs and boosting GDP/jobs, not causing inflation.
