Thanks to @Luigijorio for quoting me in SWI swissinfo.ch article on the implications of Switzerland remaining in the Energy Charter Treaty. #noect #isds
After 6 months hard work, Eunjung Lee and I publish our report today! Mapping the global coverage of fossil fuel assets protected by climate-wrecking investment treaties, we uncovered which countries are most responsible and which are most vulnerable. Learn more 👇
Need an overview on how investment treaties w/ ISDS impede climate action? Last month, I spoke to Instinctif Partners about how the Energy Charter Treaty and the UK’s investment treaties risk the UK’s climate ambitions and the wider global energy transition: open.spotify.com/episode/4nVmsX…
Important new report from E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism. If we are to have a fast and fair transition to green energy we need to dismantle the ISDS system. It's time for governments to respond. #stopISDS
Great new research mapping where investment treaties protect fossil fuels globally. The UK protects more potential annual greenhouse gas emissions than *any other country*. Department for Business and Trade must act now to reverse this chilling state of affairs and scrap #ISDS 1/2
ISDS treaties are getting in the way of a globally just green transition. Through these, the UK protects more potential annual greenhouse gas emissions than any other country. It's time we get rid of ISDS once and for all - excellent new report via E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism 💥
The current investment treaty regime is incompatible with the global energy transition explains E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism in a new report. G7 countries protect the most emissions via #ISDS, while global South countries are the most vulnerable to potential ISDS claims bilaterals.org/?investment-tr…
Corporate courts are a major impediment to climate action, with the UK’s deals being the most dangerous. The new government must commit to ending this toxic system. Great report by E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism e3g.org/publications/i…

Big thanks to James Murray for covering E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism's new report on #ISDS and global fossil fuel assets today.
Great piece from our Research Director Iza Camarillo up at Common Dreams. "As a former ISDS defense attorney, I represented Latin American governments against corporations and witnessed firsthand the devastating impacts of ISDS on local communities, economies, and environments."
Up to 2 Gigatons of CO2—equivalent to Brazil’s annual emissions—are shielded by investment treaties. E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism new report: 🗺️maps ISDS-protected fossil fuel assets 🔎identifies countries that protect most emissions and also the most vulnerable to claims #ClimateAction #FossilFuels
Many thanks to Elizabeth Meager for in-depth coverage of E3G - Third Generation Environmentalism report analysing global fossil fuel assets protected by #ISDS. 62% of all fossil fuel assets owned by foreign investors are protected by treaty-based investment protection, undermining global energy transition.
