## Resource

At COP28 in December 2023, the world committed to transitioning away from fossil fuels. Yet in the years since, there’s been little progress. A meeting in Colombia last month hoped to change that, gathering ministers and climate envoys from 57 countries to try and chart a path to end the use of fossil fuels. This week on Zero, Tzeporah Berman, chair of the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty Initiative, tells Akshat Rathi what the conference achieved and where it goes next.  Explore further: Fossil Fuel Treaty Initiative website First Conference on the Transition Away from Fossil Fuels Countries Draw Up Next Steps to Decarbonize at Colombia Fossil-Fuel Summit Climate Negotiators Meet in Santa Marta to Discuss Fossil Fuel Transition - Bloomberg Zero is a production of Bloomberg Green .
