THE FOSSIL FUEL TREATY VIRTUAL SUMMIT
8-15 September, 2025
The Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative has already made significant strides: 16 governments are now actively participating in conversations around the initiative, and a growing bloc of civil society, communities, and champions around the world are building pressure for real change. We are no longer debating if we must phase out fossil fuels — the question is how, when, and through what process.
That’s where this virtual Summit — and your leadership — come in.
We are entering a critical next phase: laying the groundwork for a dedicated negotiating process in 2026. The world needs a clear, coordinated global plan to end fossil fuel expansion, fairly phase out production, and fast-track a just transition. Our initiative is that plan — and we are closer than ever to making it real.
The climate crisis is accelerating, and fossil fuels remain its core driver — but our network already knows this. What matters now is how we move from recognition to coordinated global action.
This virtual summit is not a moment to revisit what we already know. It’s a working space for shaping what comes next. Together, we will align around the legal, political, and movement-building strategy to deliver a Treaty. We’ll strengthen regional and constituency coalitions, deepen collaboration between civil society and governments, and define the roles each of us must play to turn momentum into a mandate.
This is your opportunity to help shape a historic global advance — and help deliver the first international process focused on ending the fossil fuel era.

SUPPORT OUR WORK
With your support, we can scale the campaign required to leverage government efforts and secure a negotiating mandate for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
With the help of over a million individuals just like you, the call for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty has come so much further than we ever could have imagined, and now we have a clear political pathway toward securing a negotiating mandate for a new mechanism to manage a phase-out of coal, oil and gas.
There are lots of ways to work with us to help create a world free from fossil fuels, including endorsing the Treaty.
But there is another way you can support our work - by chipping in to help us scale this bold, ambitious global project.
We rely on the support of generous individuals, organisations, and foundations to raise the resources we need to do our work. It is critically important.
If you are interested in making a donation, you can do so in a number of ways - as a one-time gift or on a regular basis - either weekly or monthly.
Thank you for helping us take the Treaty initiative to the next level! With your support, we can scale the campaign required to leverage government efforts and secure a negotiating mandate for a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
