Fossil Fuel Treaty Now Live: Debut Episode of the Podcast

In an effort to combat the accelerating climate crisis, a Fossil Fuels Non-Proliferation Treaty is being proposed globally. The treaty, modelled after efforts to reduce the spread of nuclear weapons, is gaining support ahead of the COP26 climate conference in Glasgow.

One of the leading voices behind this initiative is Richard Folland, who is associated with Carbon Tracker. Folland is joined by Mitzi Jonelle Tan, a Filipina climate justice activist and organiser with Fridays for Future, in advocating for the treaty.

Their perspectives on the treaty were featured in a recent episode of the Global Energy Transition Podcast series, titled "Volts podcast: treating fossil fuels like nuclear weapons, with Tzeporah Berman." The episode, hosted by Michael Buchsbaum, is available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

Christian Kreymborg, who mixed and edited the audio for the episode, also plays a crucial role in the podcast series. Kreymborg, like Folland and Tan, has a personal website showcasing his credentials.

Energy Transition.org, led by Buchsbaum, is another platform working towards a sustainable energy future. The blog provides insights and discussions on various aspects of the energy transition.

The Fossil Fuels Non-Proliferation Treaty initiative also has a video introduction available, offering a comprehensive overview of the treaty and its objectives. As the world gears up for the COP26 conference, the treaty is poised to be a significant topic of discussion.

While the available search results do not provide specific names of persons supporting a global antiproliferation convention for coal, oil, and methane gas who are interviewed in the podcast, the voices of advocates like Folland and Tan are undoubtedly contributing to the growing momentum behind this treaty.
