Last week, the EU agreed to push for a global phase-out of fossil fuels.
It's a big deal - the EU's climate diplomacy strategy finally plans to tackle... the source of climate change.
But there are big issues with the EU's approach.

Over 72% of countries have expressed direct support for a strong outcome on fossil fuels at

Tha large majority of remaining countries are rightfully asking for differentiation and support in the phase out.
Will

listen to them or to a handful of blockers?
New analysis by PICAN &
@PriceofOil
:
This year, over 127 countries support phasing out fossil fuels at COP, a significant increase from last year when 80 countries only called for a phaseout or phase down, restricted to the electricity sector.

(Germany) the only way to limit warming to 1.5°C is to peak global emissions by 2025 and reduce 60% by 2035. Fossil fuel phase out is the only way to save mankind.

📉We forecast a record fall of 20% in EU fossil generation in 2023 - almost 2x the previous record in 2020.
Why? Record growth in wind & solar, falling electricity demand and a return to normal for hydro reservoirs and French nuclear plants.
