Building a bloc of nation-states

Countries formally engaging in discussions on developing a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty consist of 17 nation-states. Over 140 cities and subnational governments have backed their efforts. These governments are working with key stakeholders and the Treaty Technical team on the proposed Fossil Fuel Treaty as a new legal mechanism that will secure an equitable transition away from oil, gas, and coal, and the world’s chance to stay within the 1.5°C climate limit. We welcome other governments joining them.
