Tell World Leaders to End Fossil Fuel Subsidies!We need real action from world leaders at Rio's Earth Summit -- starting with the issue of fossil fuel subsidies.
This year our governments will hand nearly hundreds of billions of dollars in government subsidies to the coal, gas, and oil industries -- six times as much money as we invest in renewable energy.
Ending these subsidies could actually take a giant step towards solving the climate crisis, saving gigatonnes of carbon dioxide emissions and helping make clean energy cheaper than fossil fuels.
Sign on and we'll deliver this global petition in an unforgettable way on June 18th as world leaders arrive for the "Earth Summit" in Rio.
Citat:
To the G20 and World Leaders:
As concerned global citizens, we urge you to honour your previous commitments to end taxpayer handouts to the fossil fuel industry. To save our planet we need a game-changer now -- we call on you to first lead by example, and then make ending all polluter payments the top global priority for the Rio Earth Summit.
Signed,
