AOSIS Pavilion: Small Island States call for global just transition to renewable energy
Eight island nations - Tuvalu and Vanuatu, alongside Antigua and Barbuda, Fiji, Niue, Solomon Islands, Timor-Leste, and Tonga - are spearheading the call for a just and equitable transition away from fossil fuels. They are calling for a new multilateral instrument to complement the Paris Agreement that would govern the supply of fossil fuels – a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Small island developing states (SIDS) have long called on the global community for greater climate ambition. Major step-changes in international climate policy have often been spearheaded by Small Island States – from securing a 1.5ºC limit in the Paris Agreement, to pushing for the International Court of Justice to issue an Advisory Opinion on climate change.
It is in this spirit that eight island nations are calling for greater multilateral cooperation on a global just transition from fossil fuels. The proposed Fossil Fuel Treaty will enable countries to come to the negotiating table to decide the rules and frameworks that will govern the just transition from fossil fuels - with equity and the 1.5ºC temperature goal at its core.
This event, to be held at the COP28 AOSIS Pavilion, will provide an opportunity to showcase the ongoing leadership and power of Small Island Developing States in the fight for climate justice, and provide a platform to encourage other nations to join the Fossil Fuel Treaty initiative tackling the root cause of the climate crisis.
Speakers Include:
Government Speakers To Be Announced
Brianna Fruean, Youth climate justice activist, Samoa
Dr. Deborah Ley, Chief, Energy and Natural Resources, Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean; IPCC Lead Author
Nikki Reisch, Director Climate and Energy Programme, Centre for International Environmental Law (CIEL)

100 cities demand a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty
From Paris to Lima, Kolkata to Sydney, London to Port-au-Prince, California to Rome, and Vancouver to Belém, 100 cities and subnational governments around the world are calling for nation states to negotiate a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Cities know firsthand the gravity of the climate emergency, facing heatwaves, flooding, wildfires and hurricanes that are uprooting and displacing whole urban communities. At the same time, cities are the biggest energy consumers and carbon emitters globally. That’s why cities are essential players in the global just transition and hold the unique possibility to carve out energy futures that are free from the main driver of the climate crisis — fossil fuels.
For the first time in history, 100 cities and subnational governments are rallying behind the call for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty, a global initiative to end fossil fuel expansion, equitably phase out coal, oil and gas, and propel a just transition to renewable energy for all.
Together, these 100 cities are building collective pressure from below to make fossil fuels history, and influence governments around the world to ratify a Fossil Fuel Treaty.
Hear from the voices of these pioneering cities and subnational governments who are championing the Fossil Fuel Treaty and building momentum for fossil fuel phase out and a just energy transition, and learn how your city can join this growing movement.

Safeguarding the Amazon: A Call for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Zone
The science is clear that protection of the remaining intact Amazon forest is critical to maintaining global biodiversity, stable hydrological systems worldwide, and a livable climate. Across the Amazon, Indigenous peoples are fighting for their rights, and working to stop fossil fuel extraction in their home. In addition, many national governments in the Amazon have expressed support for climate mitigation and protection of human rights and biodiversity. Yet expansion of oil drilling in the Amazon continues and is having a devastating impact on Indigenous lives, livelihoods and climate stability. Road building for oil drilling is opening up new areas of the Amazon to fires and scientists warn that the Amazon is close to a ‘tipping point’.
While there is clear interest in opening up more of the Amazon to oil extraction, like recent efforts in Peru to auction new oil blocks, there are many local and international initiatives aiming to stop exploration. The Presidents Summit that will soon happen in Belém, Brazil, the national referendum vote in Ecuador to safeguard Yasuní, the proposal to protect 80 percent of the Amazon by 2025 (80x25), and the idea of the Amazon as a fossil fuel non- proliferation zone are all part of the key discussions and progress towards protecting the Amazon.
This event seeks to identify solutions and pathways forward to a fossil fuel free Amazon that addresses human rights, ecological, economic and political barriers to stopping oil drilling in the Amazon rainforest.
This event is co-hosted by the Ford Foundation.

Contexto
La ciencia es clara en cuanto a que la protección de la selva amazónica intacta que queda es fundamental para mantener la biodiversidad global, los sistemas hidrológicos estables en todo el mundo y un clima estable. En toda la Amazonía, los pueblos indígenas están luchando por sus derechos y para detener la explotación de combustibles fósiles en su hogar. Además, muchos gobiernos nacionales de la Amazonia han expresado su apoyo a la mitigación del cambio climático y a la protección de los derechos humanos y la biodiversidad. Sin embargo, la expansión de las petroleras en la Amazonia continúa y está teniendo un impacto devastador en la vida de los pueblos indígenas, en sus medios de subsistencia y en la estabilidad del clima. La construcción de carreteras para la extracción de petróleo está abriendo nuevas zonas de la Amazonia a los incendios y los científicos advierten de que la Amazonia está cerca de un "punto de inflexión".
Aunque hay claros intereses en abrir más la extracción en la Amazonia, como los recientes acontecimientos que pretenden licitar bloques en Perú, hay muchas iniciativas locales e internacionales que pretenden detener la exploración. La Cumbre de Presidentes que se celebrará próximamente en Belem, la consulta para proteger Yasuní, la propuesta de proteger el 80% de la Amazonia para 2025 (80x25) y la idea de la Amazonía como zona de no proliferación de combustibles fósiles forman parte de los principales debates y avances que pretenden defender la Amazonia.
Este evento pretende identificar soluciones y vías para avanzar hacia una Amazonia libre de combustibles fósiles que aborde las barreras de derechos humanos, ecológicas, económicas y políticas para detener la perforación petrolífera en la selva amazónica.
Objectivo
Aprovechar la coyuntura de las reuniones de la semana de clima, NN.UU, y el cumbre sobre ambición climática convocado por Secretaria General Guterres en Nueva York en Septiembre donde diversos representantes gubernamentales, líderes indígenas y organizaciones civiles estarán presentes para generar un espacio de discusión que permita avanzar la agenda de protección de la Amazonía como zona de exclusión de hidrocarburos y otras actividades que atentan contra esta región.

Contexto
A ciência é clara ao afirmar que a proteção da floresta amazônica remanescente é fundamental para manter a biodiversidade global, sistemas hidrológicos estáveis em todo o mundo e um clima habitável. Em toda a Amazônia, os povos indígenas lutam por seus direitos e trabalham para impedir a extração de combustíveis fósseis em seus territórios. Além disso, muitos governos nacionais na Amazônia expressaram apoio à mitigação climática e à proteção dos direitos humanos e da biodiversidade. No entanto, a expansão da exploração de petróleo na Amazônia continua, trazendo impactos devastadores nas vidas e nos meios de subsistência dos povos indígenas e populações locais, e na estabilidade climática de todo o mundo. A construção de estradas para exploração de petróleo também está abrindo novas áreas na Amazônia a incêndios, desmatamento e grilagem de terras, e os cientistas alertam que a Amazônia está perto de um “ponto de não retorno”.
Embora exista um interesse claro em abrir mais a Amazônia à extração de petróleo, tal como os esforços recentes no Peru para leiloar novos blocos petrolíferos, existem muitas iniciativas locais e internacionais que visam parar a exploração. A Cúpula da Amazônia, realizada em Belém, Brasil, em agosto, a votação do referendo nacional no Equador para proteger o Parque Nacional Yasuní, a proposta para proteger 80% da Amazônia até 2025 (80x25) e a ideia da Amazônia como uma zona de não proliferação de combustíveis fósseis fazem parte de discussões e desenvolvimentos políticos importantes para proteger a Amazônia.
Este evento procura identificar soluções e caminhos para uma Amazônia livre de combustíveis fósseis, que aborde as questões de direitos humanos, ecológicas, econômicas e políticas para impedir a perfuração de petróleo na floresta amazônica.
Objetivo
Aproveitando a Semana do Clima de Nova York, a Assembleia Geral da ONU e a Cúpula do Secretário-Geral da ONU sobre Ambição Climática, que ocorrerão na cidade de Nova York em setembro, onde representantes do governo, líderes indígenas e organizações da sociedade civil estarão presentes para gerar espaços de diálogos para avançar a agenda para a proteção da Amazônia como zona de exclusão de hidrocarbonetos e outras atividades que ameaçam esta região.

NYC March to End Fossil Fuels
We all want fresh air to breathe. Good jobs for our families. A planet where our lands and oceans thrive.
But the more oil, gas, and coal we burn, the more toxic air we breathe; the more heatwaves, fires, and floods we face. All while wealthy fossil fuel CEOs rake in record profits from dirty practices that pollute our communities.
The United Nations is calling on world leaders to take real steps to lead us off fossil fuels to protect people and the planet. This September, the UN Climate Ambition Summit in New York will gather world leaders to commit to phasing out fossil fuels.
Thousands of us will take to the streets of New York to demand President Biden take bold action to #EndFossilFuels.
Global Fight to End Fossil Fuels
This September, as world leaders discuss climate action at the United Nations in New York, people on every continent will join the largest-ever globally coordinated action to demand that governments end fossil fuels.
The climate crisis is escalating but so is the global movement for climate justice. We need all hands on deck to win this fight.
Action can take many forms. Already a Global Climate Strike is planned by Fridays for Future on September 15, and a March to End Fossil Fuels will be held in New York on September 17.
This is a call for others globally to join us with your own creative actions, speakouts, art installations, marches, protests, strikes, occupations, forums, gatherings, civil disobedience or digital mobilisations. Join us.
A Treaty to End Fossil Fuels @ Parliament of World Religions
This panel is open to registrants of the 2023 Parliament of the World's Religions.
Register here to attend
We have been granted a gift, an earth created in all its diversity, vitality, and abundance. Instead, we have let neglect, exploitation, and unsustainable consumption threaten the natural balance, social harmony, and existence of life on earth.
The current scale of the climate crisis requires a cooperative global solution that addresses the fossil fuel industry directly. We call on governments to urgently commence negotiations to develop and implement a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
We hail from many faiths and beliefs, but together we can remedy the decades of negligence to safeguard our coexistence with this earth. Just as our beliefs are entrenched in religious and spiritual teachings, our response to the climate crisis must be deeply rooted in science and equity to heal the planet and people alike.
Attend this session at the Parliament of World Religions in Chicago this August to learn more about the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation
Treaty and how you can support it.

Bid fareweel tae fossil fuels: the campaign for a fossil fuel treaty in Scotland
Despite the climate emergency new coal, oil and gas projects are still being given the green light by the UK and other governments, and in a cost of living crisis fossil fuel companies such as Shell and BP are reporting sky-high profits.
Fossil fuel companies are spending billions lobbying governments and the UN: it is not likely they will willingly plan for their own demise. Something has to change.
It's time to end the fossil fuel era and take away the power of the fossil fuel corporations. That’s why we are joining the call for an international treaty for a managed, just and fair phase out of fossil fuel extraction.
We are part of a global coalition, backed by parliamentarians, endorsed by cities and towns around the world, and led by a block of Pacific islands nations. Together, we are calling for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
We want the Scottish government to endorse the treaty.
Join this interactive webinar to find out more about the fossil fuel treaty, how it came about and what’s happening in the international campaign. Join the discussion about how you can get involved in winning the campaign here in Scotland by lobbying your MSPs and persuading your local council to endorse the proposal.
Speakers:
Tunaimati'a Jacob Netzler is the Pacific campaigner for the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty initiative. A bloc of Pacific nations are leading the call for this treaty, and Jacob has led a lot of work building political support across the Pacific over the past six months.
Nathan Taft is a campaigner at Stand.Earth. He is involved in campaigning for California to become the first subnational government to endorse the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty, and will talk about how their campaign developed.
Martha Myers (to be confirmed) works for Corporate Europe Observatory and used to work for Friends of the Earth Europe. She will talk about the lobbying power of the fossil fuel industry and how it is limiting action on climate change.
