Open letter to the European Parliament: The Just Transition has to be fossil fuel-free

The European Commission promised in its European Green Deal to leave no one and no region behind in a transition away from fossil fuels towards a climate-neutral economy. Its proposed Just Transition Fund - seeking to support people, workers and communities affected - cannot be used to fund gas as another dirty fossil fuel. Therefore, over 60 NGOs, including ClientEarth, are asking all Members of the European Parliament in an open letter to keep the Just Transition Fund fossil fuel-free.
