Italy's dangerous new public finance policy breaks the promise @ItalyMFA made at @COP26, by continuing investments in fossil fuels. It's the worst policy produced by a COP26 #StopFundingFossils signatory, Italy must be kicked out of the Glasgow Statement: https://t.co/UI9htsM9do

🚨NEW🚨

✅ The @COP26 #StopFundingFossils initiative is shifting $billions out of fossil fuels 💸
❌But some countries have not kept their promises.
@JoeBiden, @Bundeskanzler, @GiorgiaMeloni, keep your promise and show us some action.

🚨NEW: @COP26 #StopFundingFossils promise is shifting billions 💸

BUT countries must meet & expand commitments in 2023 & accelerate the transition to clean energy - for climate, development AND energy security goals.

++ BREAKING++
Nach öffentlichem Druck von allen Seiten wurde die Entscheidung zu fossiler Finanzierung heute von der Tagesordnung der @KfW genommen. Klingt bürokratisch, ist aber ein sehr wichtiger Schritt. Aktivismus wirkt! Der fossile Trip der Regierung verliert an Fahrt.

🚨Breaking! The Dutch court dismisses damages claims by @RWE_AG and @uniper_energy and considers the ban on coal-fired power generation by 2030 as lawful, proportionate and foreseeable. This is a major victory for a just #energytransition! 🥳
