Friends of the Earth International calls for a global movement to replace the centralized fossil fuel industry and other harmful energy sources—including nuclear power and large hydroelectric dams—with community-centered, sustainable energy. The statement asserts that the Paris Agreement is insufficient to limit warming to 1.5 degrees and demands that developed nations, responsible for the majority of emissions, lead emission reductions and provide financial support to the Global South.

  • The Paris Agreement is deemed insufficient and dangerous because it lacks legal force, does not require science-based emission reductions, and provides no financial solutions, potentially leading to a warming of 3 to 4 degrees.
  • Fossil fuel expansion continues despite the climate emergency, with over 1,600 new coal plants planned or under installation across 62 countries.
  • Non-fossil energy sources such as nuclear power and large hydroelectric dams are characterized as 'polluting energy' or 'false solutions' due to their high costs, safety risks, and environmental impacts; specifically, decomposing vegetation in large dams emits nearly one billion tonnes of greenhouse gases annually.
  • There is a significant disparity in climate responsibility: 10% of the global population is responsible for 50% of emissions, while the poorest 50% are responsible for only 10%.
  • Grassroots action has successfully led to fracking bans in various regions, including the state of Victoria in Australia, New York state, Ireland, France, Scotland, Bulgaria, and certain Canadian provinces.
