Message to the UN: Ban Fossils from Climate Talks

Ban Fossils from Climate Talks

We have a global climate emergency. Climate talks and conferences have been going on for decades with little success. We don't have time to wait any longer. We are failing our children and grandchildren.

The primary reason for this failure to act is the presence of the fossil fuel industry (the Fossils) in climate talks and negotiations. Fossils not only sponsor climate conferences but are actually at the conversation tables and lurking in the back rooms causing havoc. Their primary goal is to slow down and block action on the climate.

In fact, the framing of the Paris Agreement was shaped by the subtle hand of the Fossils and their political friends. The Fossils got their plan at COP21 in Paris in 2015. The Paris Agreement never had a chance. It was set up to fail.

The world needs fossil-free climate talks. It's time to Ban Fossils from Climate Talks.
