The world needs a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty

We all know that fossil fuels are the root cause of climate crisis, which is why scientists and climate leaders around the world have been telling us that we have to limit their production, use, and expansion.

But the Paris Agreement never even uses the words "fossil fuels" and does nothing to reduce their production, use, and expansion. The promises made by the Biden Administration and others to reduce pollution are good, but will be meaningless without a global effort to reduce and eventually eliminate fossil fuels.

Therefore, a complementary agreement is needed. Fifty years ago, the world walked back from brink of nuclear armageddon with an international nuclear non-proliferation treaty.

Today, on the cusp of climate breakdown, the world needs a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty to phase out fossil fuels, support a just transition, and ensure 100% access to renewable energy around the world.

Sign if you agree: The U.S. must commit to a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty phasing out fossil fuels.
