#COP30 Rich countries are derailing the transition away from fossil fuels by clinging to failed private finance schemes. Blended finance isn’t working. Public funding is the only path forward. Must-read via @devex: www.devex.com/news/opinion...

At #COP30 the EU poses as champion of a #fossilfuel fuel phase-out. But it doesn’t need others to move first: it funds it, burns it, banks the profits, then points the finger South. That’s not climate ambition – it’s demagoguery. 👇Thread👇

8/ 📢 New op-ed from the Asian People’s Movement on Debt and Development's Lidy Nacpil & @esbast.bsky.social: At #COP30, public finance is the key to a fair fossil fuel phaseout. No more excuses. Rich countries must pay their fair share. 🔗 www.commondreams.org/opinion/cop3...

It's crunch time at #COP30 and we want to remind Global North governments of the obligations they keep trying to escape. 🛑We reject their false finance schemes, and demand the public, grant-based finance our communities deserve. #PayUp #ClimateFinance

🚨BREAKING: International Finance Corporation @ifcorg.bsky.social, Asia Development Bank & International Bank for Reconstruction and Development put on notice over fossil fuel finance even as govts at #COP30 discuss a fossil fuel phase-out roadmap. Details ➡️ www.globalcapital.com/article/2flx...

@cop30brazil.bsky.social President do Lago was just quoted @theguardian.com: for a fossil fuel phaseout "you don’t need public money from developed countries". This is false & risks fuelling tensions in the talks where developing countries facing debt crises underline that public finance is key.

🚨 In the final days of #COP30, we need to be very clear: 📣A just transition away from fossil fuels needs public money, and rich countries need to pay their fair share 📣 The COP30 presidency risks derailing the entire negotiations by saying otherwise. oilchange.org/news/oil-cha...

#COP30 ends 3yrs of talks to align 💸 flows with climate goals (Article 2.1c). But 💰 is still going to fossil fuels.

The only “green” thing about the #COP30 Circle of Finance Ministers’ report is how much it recycles failed ideas. Gov must stop dodging responsibility: end fossil fuel handouts, tax the rich, cancel unjust debt, + fund a just transition. oilchange.org/news/ministe... #ClimateFinance

The EU wants to be seen as a climate finance leader, but this is more self-praise rather than progress. It is falling short of ending its fossil fuel subsidies or contributing its fair share to global climate finance. #COP30 #JustEnergyTransition #ClimateFinance oilchange.org/news/eu-mini...

EU Finance Minister's decisions on #climatefinance today give a muddled message. Private finance isn’t delivering. The EU must scale up public finance, phase out fossil fuel subsidies & back polluter-pays taxes. 🔗 Our reaction: caneurope.org/climate-finance-position-the-emperor-has-no-clothes

A new report released by @oilchange.bsky.social, @iisd.org and @foeus.bsky.social reveals that an international alliance to shift public finance away from fossil fuels is working. Why? International public finance for #FossilFuels was slashed by up to 78% in 2024 ✅ https://tinyurl.com/35a3h67r

Great coverage by @reuters.com of our NEW report showing that among CETP countries, there's a 78% drop in public finance for fossil fuels, or between $11.3 billion and $16.3 billion, compared with 2019-2021 levels, before the agreement was signed. Read more ➡️ www.reuters.com/sustainabili...

We recommend CETP members should: 💪 Strengthen implementation of fossil fuel finance restrictions 🤝 Commit to a USD 42 billion annual collective clean energy finance target by 2026 (see report for how we calculate this)

CETP members should: 💪 Strengthen fossil finance restrictions 🤝 Agree a USD 42 billion annual collective clean energy finance target by 2026 ✅ Deliver public clean energy finance on fair terms ❌ End subsidies and approvals for new domestic oil and gas projects

While the CETP has driven a historic reduction in fossil financing, progress on clean energy finance is far slower. Less than 1/5 of the funds shifted from fossil fuels were redirected to clean energy, and the clean energy finance isn’t reaching countries who need it most.

There's still work to do. Some countries (Germany, Italy, Switzerland, and the U.S, before it left the CETP) —approved USD 10.9 billion in fossil fuel finance in 2023-2024, in violation of the commitment.

NEW: Our new research shows public finance for fossil fuels from @CETP_Sec countries has dropped 78% in 2024 compared to 2019-21 - a drop of $11.3–16.3 billion/yr! This shows that CETP is working - an example of international action to tackle fossil finance! Read ➡️ oilchange.org/publications...

I'm writing today to share some (rare) good climate news! New research released today by @energy.iisd.org @oilchange.bsky.social @foeus.bsky.social shows that members of the Clean Energy Transition Partnership have cut their international public finance for fossil fuels by up to 78%.

🚨BREAKING: World’s Highest Court Tells Countries to Halt Emissions Faster and Protect the Climate Press Release: oilchange.org/news/worlds-... #Climate #ClimateChange #ClimateJusticeAtTheICJ

👏 The world's highest court has ruled that states have legal duties to act on climate change and that inaction violates human rights. A huge victory for the planet, for the future, and led by the Pacific Islands Students Fighting Climate Change. #ClimateICJAO #ClimateJustice

🌍 BREAKING: Climate impunity ends today - by order of the world’s highest court. The International Court of Justice has spoken: ✅ States are legally obliged to act ✅ Inaction = human rights violation ✅ Polluters must be held accountable This is a legal revolution for our planet.

66/ 🎆 What a clear ruling today! What a victory for #ClimateJustice! On fossil fuels, right to a healthy environment, historic responsibility, compensation, duties of States withdrawing from Paris: the Court's affirmation of legal principles will enable a new era of accountability.

52/🚨The Court then delivers a powerful statement: failure of a state to take appropriate action to regulate fossil fuel consumption, the granting of fossil fuel licences, fossil fuel subsidies may constitute an internationally wrongful act which is attributable to that state

32/ The Court concludes that, under the UN Climate Agreemnt, the standard of diligence related to the national mitigation ambition is *stringent*.
