3/ The EU is trying to dodge legal responsibilities to provide public #ClimateFinance at the needed scale and quality. Without serious commitments to scale up public climate finance - including by ending fossil fuel subsidies - the EU risks losing credibility ahead of #COP30.

2/ “It is hypocritical to expect debt-ridden Global South countries to fund renewable energy through costly private loans, when the EU’s own energy transition progress has relied on public investment and planning."

The EU wants to be seen as a climate finance leader, but this is more self-praise rather than progress. It is falling short of ending its fossil fuel subsidies or contributing its fair share to global climate finance. #COP30 #JustEnergyTransition

👀In case you missed it: A landmark ruling by @CIJ_ICJ confirmed states have a binding legal duty to prevent climate harm and to protect human rights from the impacts of climate change. 💡Here's what experts, including OCI's Maria Alejandra, say ⬇️ https://t.co/Ai9BUzRPwL

“This two-tiered approach...won't lower electricity costs," said Ted Kelly, of @EnvDefenseFund. “It just saddles families and businesses with higher bills and more asthma-causing pollution.” For the Trump admin, fossil fuel profits always matter more than the people.
The White House is offering “concierge, white glove service” to oil, coal and other fossil fuel companies that are seeking to gain fast approval for their projects, according to an energy official, while slowing down or blocking solar and wind projects. https://t.co/9Vtv5tyxU8

BREAKING: The Trump admin has installed 100+ fossil fuel insiders and corporate lobbyists to roles across federal agencies. These staffers are enacting a dirty energy agenda and destroying our public lands. Our new report with @revolvingdoorDC breaks it all down ⬇️

@SenWhitehouse @DoctorVive @collinrees 🤑 Days after denying fossil fuel subsidies exist, Trump's top energy official, former fracking exec. Chris Wright, gave $625M in new subsidies to coal. Oh, and he ordered Dept. of Energy staff to stop using the word "subsidies" to try to pull the wool over the public's eyes.

@SenWhitehouse @DoctorVive @collinrees Some highlights from the piece: 📈Fossil fuel subsidies have risen to new highs under the Trump admin. Industry will now get over $4B in new subsidies every year, on top of the $35B they were already set to receive.

Fossil fuel companies are getting propped up with billions in tax dollars, but the U.S. energy secretary claims otherwise.

As Trump + the GOP shut down the gov't to avoid funding healthcare for working people, a reminder of what they WILL fund: 💸$35B in annual handouts to fossil fuels 💸$625M in new giveaways to coal Trump puts his fossil fuel donors before working people.

Ahead of a U.S. government shutdown, Collin Rees said: “Trump and Republicans are showing they work for billionaires and fossil fuel CEOs, not working people.”

The Trump admin is doing this because they care more about providing a steady stream of profits to Trump's fossil fuel donors than providing clean, affordable energy to working people.
The Trump administration plans to allow work on “priority conventional energy projects” to continue during the government shutdown, halting permitting for some renewable energy projects.

OCI's @AdamMcGibbon on new report: "CETP has set a new global norm, with billions in international public finance permanently shifting away from fossil fuels. The more the CETP succeeds, the more isolated the remaining countries outside of it appear." ⬇️
oilchange.org
This report finds that CETP members cut fossil fuel finance by up to 78% but need to rapidly scale up finance for renewables.
