Response to the adoption of the PACT of the Future

In response to the adoption of the PACT of the Future, Romain Ioualalen, Oil Change International Global Policy Manager, said:

“Today, countries once again put the fight against fossil fuels at the heart of the multilateral response to the climate crisis. But words are not enough, we need urgent action. Countries must adopt national climate plans (NDCs) that immediately halt fossil fuel expansion and include plans to phase out fossil fuels. Rich nations must lead the way and commit to a new climate finance goal of at least $1 trillion annually at COP29. Only through concrete and binding financial commitments and rapid action to phase out fossil fuels can we secure a livable future within 1.5°C. The clock is ticking. It’s time to pay up and phase out.”
