quote

• It is a major mistake in the current climate action debates,
  • when big actors with interests in the oil, gas, and coal industry,
• use investments in
• nature based solutions or
• technologies for carbon dioxide removal (CDR),
• as “offsets” for the inability to phase out fossil-fuels.
• This will not work. Science is clear on this point
• We need to
• phase out fossil-fuels AND
  • restore nature to secure carbon sinks in soils and forests, AND
  • to invest in CDR technologies.
• Additionality is the word of the day, not substitution.

quote

• We cannot continue with double standards on fossil-fuels and renewable energy,
• or as a majority of countries are doing today –
  • continue to sit on the fence, with green rhetoric but grey actions,
• which adds to the perception of widespread greenwashing.
