The Danish presidency proposal exempts aviation fuels from being taxed, until at least 2035, when the Commission assesses whether to change this.

👊This is farcical. It goes counter the spirit of the ETD revision of taxing the most polluting energy carriers. @staygroundednet.bsky.social

On the phase-out plans:

💪Good that the Netherlands "has broken the ice" with the first phase-out plans of the COFFIS countries.

We were expecting something more, but it is good starting point.

👏Good job from Ireland, Netherlands, and Belgium for being on time with their submission!

❗For the other countries: please submit an inventory as soon as possible!

❌ Some of these countries have failed to submit an inventory last year as well.

The coalition was launched at COP28 in 2023, thanks to the initiative of the Netherlands @robjetten.bsky.social

Countries need to publish an inventory within one year after joining, and a phase-out plan two years after joining.

➡️Let's see who has delivered so far.

📄The report also features a Catalogue tool of initiatives, concepts and best practices (as suggested in the submissions to the Roadmap).

The Coalition on Phasing Out Fossil Fuel Incentives Including Subsidies is listed as well (we suggested it 😉) @energy.iisd.org

At the national level, harmful subsidies could
be repurposed toward climate-resilient and low-carbon practices. (p. 78)
November 6, 2025 at 10:49 AM
Financing nature remains challenging due to entrenched market failures: ... harmful subsidies continue to incentivize degradation. The Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework provides... targets to eliminate USD 500 billion in harmful subsidies... (p. 74)

Country-led and country-owned coordination mechanisms can improve conditions for investment [...] (e.g., [...] reviews of environmentally harmful subsidies—with safeguards for vulnerable groups—and gradually redirecting the resulting fiscal savings). (p. 48)

Reference to IPCC: "The IPCC recommended the following policy options can have important long-term
catalytic benefits: [...] (vii) economic instruments, such as phasing in carbon pricing and phasing out fossil fuel subsidies in a way that addresses equity and access" (p. 14)

"Redirecting environmentally damaging subsidies toward sustainable practices can further protect ecosystems, cut input costs, and strengthen food security." (p. 12)

Antigua and Barbuda

The Climate Week in New York could be a good moment to show their commitment to phasing out fossil subsidies.

💬🗨️Let's talk about COFFIS! @energy.iisd.org

As COP30 @cop30brazil.bsky.social approaches, several COFFIS members still need to provide a fossil fuel subsidy inventory.

⬇️We have submitted our input to the UNFCCC to inform the negotiations on climate finance at @cop30brazil.bsky.social Our proposal?

👉Phasing out fossil subsidies. Let's use the money funding fossils to accelerate the climate transition instead.
