The plan for a global just transition to phase out fossil fuels. https://fossilfueltreaty.org/
How could a global, equitable transition away from fossil fuels look like through a binding global Treaty? 🌎 🤔 We’ve just released a new series of briefing papers exploring the essential architecture of a potential Fossil Fuel Treaty. Read more at FossilFuelTreaty.org/optionspapers
Santa Marta opened a door. Now governments must step through it and turn dialogue into real action.
The Governments of Colombia and the Netherlands have released the official “Co-Hosts Outcome Report of the First International Conference on Transitioning Away from Fossil Fuels.”

📃 “Santa Marta also exposes a deeper governance gap: there is still no binding international framework for the production side of fossil fuels. That is why the Santa Marta process and the push for a Fossil Fuel Treaty should be seen as mutually reinforcing.” 🤝 wwf.panda.org/discover/our...
🌍 A new set of reports exposes economic harms of fossil fuel dependence to African countries and outlines pathways for diversification. 📖 Explore the reports www.fossilfueltreaty.org/ff-revenue-a...
