Tools – Fossil Exit Strategy
• World needs an exit strategy to
leave fossil fuels, step by step, year
by year
• A minimum reduction path would
be to near zero by 2050
• Each country also needs a strategy
for fast deployment of renewable
energy
• Rapid mobilization of biomass from
all sectors
• No new investments in fossil fuels

Tools – Carbon Tax
• Carbon tax - key instrument for
energy transition
• Benefits
• Easy to apply and calculate
• Tax neutral
• Efficient
• Global efforts undergoing to
apply carbon tax
