Climate breakdown, biodiversity loss, economic instability and conflict are deeply connected and fossil fuel dependence sits at the centre of all four.

Colombia was expected to publish a comprehensive inventory by November 2025.

Looking for extra fiscal space? An inventory of fossil fuel subsidies can help!

Here are 5-steps to get started:
1๏ธโƒฃWhole of gov't approach
2๏ธโƒฃComprehensive scope & definition
3๏ธโƒฃAppropriate method to measure subsidies
4๏ธโƒฃEnvironmental & socio-economic lens
5๏ธโƒฃRegular updates

Note on country coverage: The United States requested that their data be removed from further reporting on OECDโ€™s support measures for fossil fuels. They have thus been removed from this update, including from all numbers on previous years reported in this document. As such, any comparison with previous updates of the Inventory should take this removal into account.

โ—We know that the United States are completely withdrawing from climate action, but it is still surprising to read in the latest OECD Inventory of Support Measures for Fossil Fuels 2025 that the US has asked for their data not to be included.

โžก๏ธOur paper sets out a solution: a binding, EU-wide framework with harmonised definitions, mandatory reporting and enforceable phase-out deadlines.

โœŠItโ€™s time to move fossil fuel subsidy reform from repeated promises to enforceable EU law.

โŒCurrent EU tools arenโ€™t delivering. The Governance Regulation, the European Semester, State aid control and energy taxation all fail to force real phase-out commitments.

๐ŸšฉReporting under National Energy and Climate Plans is fragmented. Definitions differ. Enforcement is weak. The result: public money continues to prop up fossil fuels while climate targets slip.

COP30 BREAKING NEWS

The presidency has just dropped a new package of texts including the "global mutirรฃo" cover, which makes no mention of fossil fuels or roadmaps

Here's my snap analysis (pic)

Breaking: The Canadian government is being sued over its 2025 federal budget, which introduces new fossil fuel subsidies and weakens climate measures.

It's apparently the first case using the International Court of Justiceโ€™s climate advisory opinion.

COFFIS members should drive forward progress on fossil fuel subsidy phaseout at COP30 by:
1๏ธโƒฃStrengthening commitments on fossil fuel subsidy phaseout in Mutirao decision
2๏ธโƒฃEmbedding fossil fuel subsidy phaseout in Article 2.1c

That's pretty weak phrasing - Parties could be urged to do a lot more, such as submit national inventories of their fossil fuel subsidies and action plans for gradually phasing them out.

First, discussions on the just transition work programme have come up with a new text.

In it is the first mention of fossil fuel subsidy reform of this COP:

But there's a "no text" option indicating this text is opposed by some
