❓What was decided in Santa Marta on fossil fuel subsidies? Let's have a look at the groundbreaking conference that took place in Colombia to discuss transitioning away from fossil fuels. ⤵️ Here are the co-host takeaways: static1.squarespace.com/static/68dc9...

❗We know that the United States are completely withdrawing from climate action, but it is still surprising to read in the latest OECD Inventory of Support Measures for Fossil Fuels 2025 that the US has asked for their data not to be included. www.oecd.org/en/publicati... @carbonbrief.org
Note on country coverage: The United States requested that their data be removed from further reporting on OECD’s support measures for fossil fuels. They have thus been removed from this update, including from all numbers on previous years reported in this document. As such, any comparison with previous updates of the Inventory should take this removal into account.

🛢️Fossil fuel subsidies remain a structural failure in EU climate and energy governance. Despite years of promises, over €50bn in subsidies across the EU still have no phase-out date.

🔔We’ve published a new paper with @caneurope.org and @clientearth.bsky.social on a phase-out framework for fossil subsidies, addressed to the @ec.europa.eu ⬇️ in light of the upcoming Governance Regulation revision in Q4 2026. Read it here: stopfossilsubsidies.eu?p=3596

The Danish presidency proposal exempts aviation fuels from being taxed, until at least 2035, when the Commission assesses whether to change this. 👊This is farcical. It goes counter the spirit of the ETD revision of taxing the most polluting energy carriers. @staygroundednet.bsky.social

The coalition was launched at COP28 in 2023, thanks to the initiative of the Netherlands @robjetten.bsky.social Countries need to publish an inventory within one year after joining, and a phase-out plan two years after joining. ➡️Let's see who has delivered so far.

The positive scores are from Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland. 🔍Taking a fossil fuel phase out seriously means making efforts in improving transparency.

✅ Here are the results. Despite the general lack of engagement from COFFIS members countries, some members submitted high-quality information. Austria and France get a NEGATIVE score. Please submit actual inventories.

⚖️ The newly launched initiative of our campaign - the COFFIS Observatory - developed a methodology to score the inventories, rewarding transparency and punishing the lack of essential information.

‼️ But only four countries did so. Three original members (Belgium, Netherlands, and Ireland) + Switzerland. Austria and France made submissions that did not contain a fossil fuel subsidy inventory.

🚨 Fossil fuel subsidies in the EU should be HISTORY, not POLICY. Yet, only 43% are set to end by 2025—and even that isn’t happening. We need the EU to adopt: ✅ A timeline for the phase out by 2025 ✅ Methodological guidance ✅ A framework for transparency and accountability
