The #fossilfueltreaty is a proposed international mechanism that complements the #parisagreement by managing a fast and fair global transition away from coal, oil and gas. The proposal has been backed by the @who @europeanparliament and president of @timorleste_ and the climate minister of #newzealand. "We therefore, unite with a hundred Nobel peace prize laureates and thousands of scientists worldwide and urge world leaders to join the fossil fuel non-proliferation treaty to manage a just transition away from fossil fuels.” “Countries like Tuvalu are the ones on the frontlines, they know they can’t just give in to the vested interests of the fossil fuel companies,” said Harjeet Singh, head of global political strategy at Climate Action Network International. “We know who the victims of the climate crisis are and we know who the perpetrators are but we don’t ever discuss fossil fuels, the elephant in the room.” #ClimateEmergency #actnow
