🛢️Fossil fuel industry: Gigantic profits
💸Damage they cause? We all pay the bill

Failing to manage climate mitigation in a just way comes at a high price.
Mass unemployment, rising welfare costs and regional decline are the real risks of an unmanaged transition.
A strong #JustTransition helps protect jobs, reduce inequality and keep regions resilient.

When the game isn’t going in our favour, it’s tempting to change the rules – but doing so risks losing the trust of the other players.
Adapting Better Regulation to suit a big industry agenda is no different.

But wait, weren't Australia & the Pacific Islands the favorites? Here’s the background: for over a year, the WEOG group was locked in a stalemate. With both bids on the table and no consensus, we faced a real risk of the conference defaulting to Bonn.
