350
The Plan through Paris
The biggest U.N. climate conference of the decade is happening in Paris this December. Here’s the plan:
When world leaders meet in Paris this December, we need a signal that the age of fossil fuels is coming to an end.
So far, however, commitments from world governments just aren’t adding up — even after the two hottest years in history, and at a moment when renewable energy is becoming a revolutionary economic force that could power a just transition away from fossil fuels.
The solutions are obvious: we need to keep at least 80% of fossil fuels in the ground, finance a just transition to 100% renewable energy, and make sure communities on the front lines of climate change have the resources they need to respond to the crisis. This could be a turning point — if we push for it.
Here is 350’s plan for what we call “The Road Through Paris”: the plan to grow our movement and hold world leaders accountable to the action we need. And it’s the road through Paris, not the road to Paris, because our work won’t be done in December. No matter what happens at the summit, this will continue to be true: Politicians don’t lead movements — people do.
Tell world governments:
”We need a climate deal that’s in line with the imperatives of science and justice. Keep 80% of fossil fuels in the ground and finance a just transition to 100% renewable energy by 2050.“
Major events:
Global Climate March
The weekend before the climate talks start, the world will stand together in a weekend of global action, paired with an enormous march in the streets of Paris.
Mass Mobilisation + Action
When the talks wrap up, we’re planning a big mass mobilization and action in Paris on December 12th to make sure the people — not the politicians — have the last word.
Major Escalation
We know that the real work doesn’t end in Paris, so next year we’re getting ready to take things to the next level. We need to keep fossil fuels in the ground, so that’s what we’re aiming to do.
