New SUS-POL blog from @jmijin.bsky.social and @gruberte.bsky.social on the importance of public ownership in steering fossil fuel phase-outs. Quick 🧵 on their main arguments 👇 www.sussex.ac.uk/research/pro...

🔓️ Developed from a unilateral UK policy to a plurilateral initiative, the emergence of the Clean Energy Transition Partnership (CETP) was conflict-driven, contested & highly contingent, finds @freddiedaley.bsky.social, highlighting the crucial role that conflict plays in global policy action⬇️

Without tackling ISDS, fossil fuel phase-out plans will keep hitting legal roadblocks. Fixing both is essential for a just transition🌍 www.sussex.ac.uk/research/pro...

ISDS has enabled fossil fuel firms to extract $80B+ in public funds and sue governments for rejecting new coal, oil, and gas projects🛑

📢 A just transition means phasing out fossil fuels and the ISDS system that protects them 📢 A new contribution from @kylat.bsky.social sets out why reform to the investor–state dispute settlement (ISDS) system is essential for phase-outs. sussex.ac.uk/research/pro... Quick 🧵👇

Sponsoren-Deals mit fossilen Firmen haben aber auch Risiken, auf die @freddiedaley.bsky.social von Badvertising hinweist. Ein Hochwasser, das das Stadion trifft, und schon wird die Absurdität, dass man sich von einem Öl-Konzern sponsern lässt, überdeutlich. Aber mit diesem PR-Risiko lebt der HSV.

Shell ist eines der Unternehmen mit den größten CO2-Emissionen der Welt. Trotzdem hat der #HSV seine Zusammenarbeit mit Shell im Sommer zu einer "Exklusivpartnerschaft" ausgeweitet. In der Pressemitteilung geht`s um E-Ladesäulen und erneuerbare Energien. Es ist ein Paradebeispiel für Greenwashing. 🔽

🛢️We cannot lose sight of phasing out fossil fuels. @freddiedaley.bsky.social and @peternewell.bsky.social have a piece in The National Interest pushing back on the “build now, break later” mantra in the energy transition. nationalinterest.org/blog/energy-... A 🧵 on why that approach is risky👇

In a landmark opinion, the ICJ found that phasing out fossil fuels isn’t just a scientific demand—it’s a legal imperative. IISD’s @nataliejones.bsky.social takes a closer look at what the court said on fossil fuels + what it could mean for efforts to phase them out. @suspol.bsky.social

What does the ICJ climate opinion mean for #FossilFuels? According to the advisory opinion: ➡️Production, licensing & subsidizing of fossil fuels could breach int’l law ➡️Phase out standards vary with state capabilities @nataliejones.bsky.social | @suspol.bsky.social www.sussex.ac.uk/research/pro...

Comment: The fragility of the JET-Ps should be attributed to the means by which they seek to achieve these objectives, the institutions tasked with delivering them, and the global context in which they operate.

nice thread outlining @lslothuus.bsky.social's new article on a geopolitical approach to fossil fuel phase-out

⚠️Who should phase out fossil fuels first?⚠️ As countries confront the need to ditch oil, gas, and coal to meet climate goals, one question looms: Which nations should move first and fastest? @lslothuus.bsky.social offers a geopolitical approach to answering this question 🧵

The UK gov has just published new guidance for environmental impact assessments for oil & gas projects. Despite reports/industry spin, it includes a genuinely robust, credible approach to assessing the emissions caused by burning oil & gas. Let's take a look! 🧵 www.heraldscotland.com/news/2525207...

Our planet can’t afford a single new fossil fuel project — yet big commercial banks spent over $429 BILLION on fossil fuel expansion in 2024 — in some cases enabled by support from public development banks. We demand that #DefundClimateChaos now. See the report 👉 bankingonclimatechaos.org

⚠️ NEW PAPER ⚠️ @peternewell.bsky.social and I have a new piece out in Environmental Politics on the politics of phasing out fossil fuels in the UK 🇬🇧 - and what it means for fossil fuel phase-out policies globally 🧵

Fossil fuel companies will try to sue states that ban new or existing production. When I speak with powerful actors in energy policy, this fear is a central concern in how governments think about the risks of phasing out fossil fuels. Here is an important intervention in how to reduce those risks:
