The Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty

The Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty initiative aims to meet the goals of the Paris Agreement by explicitly tackling the largest driver of the climate crisis - fossil fuels - and accelerating a fast, fair and financed transition away from coal, oil and gas. The push for a Fossil Fuel Treaty is spearheaded by a bloc of twelve countries - including two fossil fuel producers - from the Pacific, Latin America, the Caribbean and Southeast Asia. The global network behind the proposal is now formed by 2000 civil society organisations, over 3,000+ scientists and academics, 101 Nobel laureates, the World Health Organisation and hundreds of health professionals, a Vatican Cardinal and thousands of religious institutions, the European Parliament, a growing number of grassroots organisations, 9 Peruvian Indigenous nations, thousands of youth activists, 100 cities and subnational governments, more than 600 Parliamentarians across the world and a growing number of businesses.
