Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS): Norway’s most important climate measure or another Mongstad disaster?

Longship, Norway's flagship investment in carbon capture and storage (CCS), will be formally launched on 17th and 18th June 2025. Langskip and Northern Lights are described by the government as Norway's most important climate measures, but the truth is rather different.

Karbonfangst og -lagring (CCS): Norges viktigste klimatiltak eller ny Mongstad-fiasko?

Langskip, Norges storsatsing på karbonfangst og -lagring (CCS), markeres 17. og 18. juni 2025. Langskip og Northern Lights (transportløsningen for CCS) omtales av regjeringen som Norges viktigste klimatiltak, men sannheten er noe annet.

Planet Wreckers: Top Global North Countries Responsible for nearly 70% of projected new oil and gas expansion to 2035

Four Global North countries - the United States, Canada, Norway, and Australia - are responsible for nearly 70% of projected new oil and gas expansion from 2025 to 2035. If this oil and gas expansion is allowed to proceed, it would lock in climate chaos and an unlivable future.

New IEA Report on Liquified Natural Gas Emissions Regurgitates Old Fallacies

In response to the International Energy Agency (IEA)’s just-released report on the greenhouse gas emissions of liquefied natural gas (LNG), Oil Change International Research Director Lorne Stockman said:

Private Fantasies, Public Realities: Why private finance isn’t delivering an energy transition and the case for public sector leadership

This report details how governments’ dominant “private-sector led” approach to financing a just energy transition is prolonging the fossil fuel era.

Banking on Climate Chaos 2025: Fossil Fuel Finance Report

The 16th annual Banking on Climate Chaos (BOCC) report covers the world’s top 65 banks’ lending and underwriting to over 2,700 fossil fuel companies. While the world’s top scientists from the International Energy Agency (IEA) repeatedly state that there is no need for a single new oil field, tanker, pipeline, or any fossil fuel expansion whatsoever, banks ignore climate risk and increase finance for dirty energy companies expanding their sector. This is amidst a rapid retreat from climate commitments many of these banks made at COP26 in Glasgow in 2021.

What we do

At Oil Change International, we create the conditions necessary for a just and equitable fossil-free world through our work to support movements, stop fossil fuel projects, and hold governments and institutions accountable for rapidly phasing out oil, gas, and coal.
What we do

Transform the institutional landscape to enable just phase-out policies

We work to advance and expand government policies to end fossil fuel production while also shifting public finance and subsidies away from fossil fuels and into a just energy transition.

What we do

Challenge the fossil fuel industry and its enablers

The fossil fuel industry thrives on misinformation — we work to combat that misinformation, strengthen the case against false solutions, and support movement and partner coordination pushing back against oil and gas companies.

What we do

Support frontline campaigns to stop fossil fuel projects

The fight for a just transition relies on strong partnerships, networks, and geographically rooted work challenging fossil fuels projects. We work to support the goals of frontline partners and help stop fossil fuel projects from being built.

Data Deep Dive

The Fossil Math

Fossil fuel companies have already greenlit enough fossil fuel extraction to overheat the planet. For a livable climate, governments must: stop new oil, gas, and coal; manage a fast and fair phase-out of all fossil fuels; and fully fund a just renewable energy transition.
  • By the numbers:

  • 51 %

    Of planned expansion by 5 countries

    The majority of global oil and gas expansion from 2023 through 2050 is threatened by just five Global North countries: the United States, Canada, Australia, Norway, and the UK.

  • 1.4  times

    More money for fossil fuels than clean

    G20 governments and development banks poured 1.4 times more public money into fossil fuels than clean energy with their international finance from 2020 to 2022.

Tell OECD countries to stop propping up the oil and gas industry with public money

Governments who are part of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) group of wealthy countries have an opportunity to start shifting USD $41 billion per year of public finance out of fossil fuels and into clean energy. We need these OECD countries to rewrite the rules to end export finance for new oil and gas projects.
