CAN-I Festival of Ideas: Centering Equity within a Global Fossil Fuel Phase Out

Civil Society Equity Review relates fossil fuels’ role in war, inflation, pandemic and climate change to recommendations in its recent report, A Fair Shares Phase Out: A Civil Society Equity Review of an Equitable Global Phase out of Fossil Fuels, with discussion on:

  • Fossil fuels are fundamental to today’s war, inflation, pandemic and climate crises; CSER sees a fair shares phase out as part of any cogent response for peaceful descent of production-consumption;

  • While the wealthiest countries remain far-below contributing their fair shares of the global effort, less-wealthy countries have mitigation pledges reaching about — or above — their full fair shares; 

  • A diversity of challenges and opportunities in addressing fossil fuel production at the national as well as international level, with highlights real-world problems playing out in thirteen countries profiled;

  •  Addressing “supply-side equity” issues relating to the phaseout of fossil fuel extraction, as well as a number of possible solutions including both national and international interventions.
