After a year of clear demands and obvious signals from energy experts, investors, and governments, the IEA has again failed where it matters on climate.

Risky Wager: The IEA’s Bet on Fossil Gas and the Need for WEO Reform
The latest climate science and rapidly changing energy markets indicate the need to rapidly shift away from fossil gas, yet the IEA mistakenly presents gas as compatible with a decarbonized future. This policy brief brings together the latest energy market research with the need for reform of the World Energy Outlook.
Denmark could be close to phasing out oil and gas extraction. Hereās why it would matter.
Last week we released a report outlining why Denmark canāt be a climate leader if it expands North Sea oil and gas production as planned.
The IEAās Hidden Negative Emissions Gamble
For the IEA, real scenario reform will require more than risky emissions accounting tricks that punt the burden and costs of reducing emissions to future generations.
The Sky’s Limit Denmark: Why Denmark Must Phase Out North Sea Oil and Gas Extraction
A new study released by Oil Change International examines the role of Danish oil and gas production in a Paris-aligned global carbon budget. The report confirms that while Denmark has positioned itself as a global climate leader, its plans to expand North Sea oil and fossil gas extraction would undermine its record of climate action and would be incompatible with achieving its Paris climate commitments.
Report: Continued North Sea oil and gas leasing would undermine Danish climate leadership
Denmarkās plans to expand North Sea oil and fossil gas extraction, if allowed to move forward, will greatly undermine its record of climate action, a new report released today finds.
āScience is not negotiable’: The Fossil Fuel Phase-Out Must Start Now
Affirming that āscience is not negotiableā in the halls of a UN conference center and acting on that fact in oneās own policy decisions can be two different things. What counts for the climate is action to manage a rapid and just transition off of fossil fuels.
Report: UK oil and gas drilling plans incompatible with responding to climate emergency
The UKās oil and gas drilling plans are incompatible with responding to the climate emergency, according to āSea Change,ā a new report by Platform, Oil Change International, and Friends of the Earth Scotland, published today.
Sea Change: Climate Emergency, Jobs and Managing the Phase-Out of UK Oil and Gas Extraction
This new report reveals, for the first time, the climate impact of North Sea oil and gas extraction, and shows the way to a job-creating energy transition. To deal with the climate emergency, the UK needs to immediately stop approving new oil and gas drilling and redirect support to clean jobs and renewable energy.
A managed decline of oil and gas production in California?
Hidden in a detailed California budget document released last week was a critical sentence that, if pursued, could mark a major shift in California climate policy.
