"57 Companies Responsible for 80% of Global CO2 Emissions Since 2016, Report Finds"

A new report reveals that just 57 companies are responsible for 80 percent of global carbon dioxide emissions, with state-owned entities and investor-owned companies contributing significantly. Despite commitments made in the 2015 Paris Agreement, many of these companies have increased their production, leading to a record high in coal consumption. The report highlights the urgent need for governments to hold these companies accountable and calls for international cooperation through a Fossil Fuel Treaty to end the expansion of fossil fuels and ensure a just transition.
