Australia's fossil fuel exports cloud its COP31 hosting bid
Original: Australia's fossil fuels and COP31
Australia is lobbying to co-host the COP31 climate summit with Pacific nations in 2026, but critics point to the country's role as one of the world's largest coal and gas exporters. Climate advocates argue hosting rights should come with stronger commitments to phase out fossil fuels, while the government defends its export industry and emissions targets.
Why now: Renewed debate over whether Australia's fossil fuel industry undermines its credibility to host the global climate talks.
