United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres called for vastly more ambitious climate action – and a tax on the "windfall" profits of oil, coal and gas producers – ahead of the G-7 summit at Italy in mid-June as experts forecast an 80% chance of 1.5° Celsius global warming by 2028.
He also urged a ban on fossil fuel ads, similar to those for tobacco, the tobacco industry – and said news media and technology companies should stop running those ads. In 2o21, Amsterdam banned ads from fossil fuel and aviation companies. A year later, France did the same with some fossil fuel ads.
