The Hague will become the first city in the world to enact binding legislation to ban fossil fuel advertising in public spaces, according to council member Leonie Gerritsen.
Leonie Gerritsen emphasized the importance of this legislation as a signal to other cities to take action against climate change and fossil fuel publicity.
The city council approved two proposals that will ban all fossil fuel advertising in outdoor spaces effective from January, highlighting the shift towards climate-conscious policies.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has called for bans on ads for fossil fuel companies, labeling them as 'the godfathers of climate chaos' and urging countries to act.
