The Energy Charter Treaty (ECT) poses a dangerous threat to the climate by giving oil, gas and coal companies the right to sue states that are signatories to the Treaty in a private court system when they take climate measures that could affect their expected profits.
LPN subscribes to the public petition "Stop the Treaty that Blocks the Paris Agreement", launched by ZERO - Sustainable Earth System Association and TROCA - Platform for Fair International Trade, which calls on the Portuguese government to promote a coordinated exit from the Energy Charter Treaty by Member States to the European Commission.
