    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Colombia has formally joined an alliance of nations calling for a fossil fuel non-proliferation treaty to prevent the “omnicide of planet Earth”, the country’s president announced at Cop28.

    The initiative was launched by a group of Pacific island nations and has gained support from the European parliament, the World Health Organization and 100 cities and subnational governments.

    Gaston Browne, the prime minister of Antigua and Barbuda, praised Colombia’s enthusiasm for the proposed treaty.

    “The transition to clean energy sources is not simply an option; it is an urgent necessity to which Colombia seeks to respond.

    Its arrival in this group of pioneering nations strengthens our collective position and demonstrates growing diplomatic support for a negotiating mandate for this fossil fuel treaty.

    Kausea Natano, the prime minister of Tuvalu, said this Cop must include language on fossil fuel phase-out in its final text.

      Sweden already basically phased out fossile Diesel, in Italy HVO Diesel was a lot cheaper than fossile Diesel and you can’t even get fossile Diesel anymore in California. With the upcoming Co2 Taxes all around the world, fossile Diesel is getting more expensive and HVO is getting cheaper because more and more production capacity is added.
