Offener Brief von Unternehmen an die Staats- und Regierungschefs der G20

A coalition of businesses calls on G20 leaders to lead the global climate transition by halving emissions by 2030, ending coal financing, removing fossil fuel subsidies by 2025, and mandating climate-related financial disclosures to drive investment toward sustainable solutions.

• The signatories urge G20 leaders to increase Nationally Determined Contributions to reduce global emissions by at least 50% by 2030 and achieve climate neutrality by 2050 at the latest, supported by published long-term emission pathways.
• The letter demands an immediate end to the development and financing of new coal projects, with a planned coal phase-out by 2030 in industrialized nations and by 2040 in all other countries.
• To shift capital toward clean technologies, the companies recommend eliminating fossil fuel subsidies by 2025 and implementing a carbon price that fully reflects the costs of climate change.
• The coalition calls for the fulfillment of existing public climate finance commitments, specifically the 100-billion-dollar promise for developing countries, to catalyze private investment in green infrastructure and nature-based solutions.
• The letter advocates for mandatory corporate disclosure of climate-related financial risks, opportunities, and impacts to improve transparency and ensure realistic capital allocation.
