Yesterday's announcement by the #UK, #US, 23 other countries and PFIs to phase out international public finance for #FossilFuels is a historic milestone and is being rightfully celebrated as such. A thread deconstructing a few "yes, but..." raised by some 1/9
Mozambique PM at #COP26 "We are in favour of an energy transition" - but need international support to achieve it Mozambique is one of 21 countries that still have more than one planned coal plant. #NoNewCoal ember-climate.org/commentary/202…

$8.5bn Just Energy Transition Partnership with South Africa: a first of its kind agreement between a coal-intensive developing country and a group of donor governments to work together and fund a just transition away from coal. This is a big deal.
