Summary/Abstract: Amongst the concerns to relaunch the multilateral cooperation on climate, in the perspective of COP-26, a new civic and scientific initiative aims for elaborating the project of a new international treaty on non-proliferation of fossil fuels, following the model of an existing one, the 1969 treaty on non-proliferation of nuclear weapons. It is desired, therefore, to complete the provisions of the Paris Agreement regarding the objective of climate neutrality by a concentrated approach between the production of fossil fuels and the reduction of the GHG emissions. The document promoted by the Climate Action Network follows its own political and diplomatic path to materialize such an effort.
