Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative’s Post

📣 BREAKING: #Barcelona Province joins the call for a #FossilFuelTreaty at #COP29! 🇪🇸 At the #FinanceCOP in Baku, the Barcelona Provincial Council officially backed the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty, joining 14 countries, 120 cities, 4,000 organizations, and nearly a million individuals in calling to #EndFossilFuels. 💬 Marc Serra, President of Climate Action and Energy Transition of the Provincial Council of Barcelona, emphasized: “At COP29, we insisted on the urgency of the energy transition and we cannot invest with one hand to curb the climate emergency and with the other continue to extract oil or gas as if nothing happened.” Supported by data from the Universitat de Barcelona, leaders highlighted that meeting the 1.5°C target means stopping new fossil fuel projects and phasing out existing ones. With its 311 municipalities and 5.7 million residents, Barcelona’s endorsement strengthens the call for better local funding and bold climate leadership. 💪 Together, we can drive the shift toward a #FossilFreeFuture.
