Fossil fuel phaseout: Will COP30 finally establish a roadmap? Establishing a timeline to transition away from fossil fuels is COP30’s trickiest agenda.

"The call to end fossil fuels isn’t solely coming from environmentalists, and has been described as a “public health imperative” by physicians, nurses and health and medical students representing millions of workers worldwide" www.euronews.com/green/2025/1... by Liam Gilliver

Love the way @greenprofgreen.bsky.social frames the fetishization of collaboration at COP as something that tries to impose a "win-win" frame on a situation in which there must be a loser...failing to grapple with that puts humanity--rather than fossil asset owners--at risk of losing. #COP30

We see you, Canada! 🇨🇦

At #COP30, @cape-acme.bsky.social is pushing to stop greenwashing and advance domestic climate action.

Canada should be making great strides at COP, but Carney spent part of yesterday pushing LNG expansion.

Let’s do better.

Kick Big Polluters Out presser happening now with opening disclosure. 1600+ fossil fuel lobbyists here at #COP30. Their voices are privileged while Indigenous health protector voices are silenced. It is time to reform and democratize the UNFCCC@cape-acme.bsky.social #KickBigPollutersOut

Peaceful sit-in by the Munduruku this morning in front of COP. They are demanding stopping of extractive activities in their territories including mining, logging, oil drilling, agrobusiness and a railway. They are asking for a meeting with Lula. They are doing the real work ❤️ #healthprotectors

Interesting greenwashing mapping from @ketanjoshi: infeasibility & lengthiness on x axis v. cost on the y. DAC, CCS and modular nuclear are all in the sweet spot.

Even worse —- the same executive, Ana Julião, manages comms for both COP30 and Shell!!! This is supposed to be the COP of truth —- where is the integrity?

Need a break from the massive crowds at #COP29?
Swing by the CRIN(ge) Pavilion (aka Canadian Oil and Gas Pavilion).

Always space to hang out.
