Non-proliferation
End the expansion of coal, oil and gas production.
Climate action needs a global framework
A treaty for a
fossil-free future
The Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative calls for international cooperation to end expansion, phase out existing production fairly and accelerate a just transition to renewable energy.
Three connected commitments
A managed transition.
Not more expansion.
Limiting warming requires most remaining fossil fuel reserves to stay in the ground. KAIROS endorsed the Treaty in 2020, joining faith-based organizations around the world calling for a fair and equitable phase-out.
Fair phase-out
Move away from existing production equitably, with wealthy and high-emitting countries moving first.
Just transition
Invest in renewable energy and economic alternatives so workers, communities and countries are supported.
