Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty endorsement

Dear Mayor and Council,
Just chiming in to let you know that I support that the Town of View Royal endorse the “Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty."
Over 75 cities in British Columbia have endorsed this so far, the highest number in North America. Proud to be leading the charge!
There is no monetary cost to endorsing it and we will be joining a Global campaign to phase out fossil fuels and propel us to a just energy transition globally.
Cities dominate global energy use and just as nuclear free cities played a critical role in calling for the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons, Councils around the world can help build momentum towards a Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty.
Regards, Jane Devonshire
