Dear business leaders and people of the world – It is time to unite and make our voices heard;
THE ERA OF FOSSIL FUELS IS OVER. THE PHASE-OUT NEEDS TO START!
It is time to address the elephant in the room.
After decades of climate negotiations where the obvious solution, phase out of fossil fuels has been ignored, many governments are instead approving new coal, oil, and gas projects — making it impossible to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement.
#WeCanDoIt💪 is a global campaign that was officially launched at the COP27 meeting in Egypt. It has mobilized over 1,000 business leaders in 78 countries to demand tougher regulations, smarter incentives, and sharper climate goals.
Now is the time to take things further. Now is the time to tell it like it is.
We can’t ignore the fact that fossil fuels have no future if we want a liveable future. The obvious solution to start phasing out fossil fuels can't be ignored in the final outcomes of climate negotiations anymore.
We, the initiators behind #WeCanDoIt💪, therefore invite everyone to support the Fossil Fuel Non-proliferation Treaty. If you represent a business, you are also encouraged to support the We Mean Business coalition's Fossil to Clean campaign, which uses the power of business to clearly state that fossil fuels need to be phased out. It is as simple as that.
So far, 8 nation states and the European Parliament, hundreds of elected officials, cities and subnational governments, 3,000 leading scientists, over 100 Nobel laureates, 300 health institutions including WHO, and over 600,000 individuals have endorsed and called on governments to support the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
In addition, over 100 global companies representing nearly $1 trillion in global annual revenue have signed the business appeal Fossil to Clean, which is urging national governments to phase out fossil fuels.
We can create a fossil-free future when we come together!
We Can Do It! 💪

The poster was produced for Westinghouse Electric as an inspirational image to boost female worker morale during World War II. Though displayed only briefly in Westinghouse factories, the poster in later year has become one of the most famous icons of World War II.
