SIGN UP FOR THE MAILING LIST TO RECEIVE UPDATES
The words “fossil fuels” appear nowhere in the landmark Paris Agreement on climate change of 2015. However, when the UN Secretary General announced, on the eve of the climate talks in 2019, that “We simply have to stop digging and drilling”, it became clear the discussion around fossil fuels and climate has shifted. The conflict between continued fossil fuel exploration and production and global climate goals is now on the international policy agenda.
The International Conference on Fossil Fuel Supply and Climate Policy explores the many opportunities for, and challenges of, policies that aim to explicitly limit fossil fuel production, in recognition that many countries rely on fossil fuel extraction and trade for their energy security, economic development, and political influence.
The first two conferences, held in 2016 and 2018, and the 2020 virtual forum, sparked new ideas, research and connections among finance specialists, industry representatives, international organizations, activists, and academic researchers. The third conference will build on this momentum, while also recognizing the changed political and policy context. With fossil fuels now prominent in both international and domestic climate policy venues, the 2022 conference stands to be the most influential and timely yet.
