Despite global calls to phase out fossil fuels, G7 nations have not shown clear commitments to end fossil fuel buildout in their countries and overseas. A recent draft of the G7 communique shows that ministers agree on the need for new upstream investments in gas, despite the IEA’s call to stop new investments in fossil fuel supply to keep temperatures within 1.5 degrees Celsius.
The CSO coalition urge G7 leaders to stop peddling fossil fuels to developing nations. It is high time that G7 nations support a just and equitable energy transition.
