A/HRC/43/53/Add.2 (t) Update the national action plan on business and human rights. 96. Finally, in light of the global climate emergency, the Special Rapporteur would like to highlight the recommendations from his recent report to the General Assembly on climate change and human rights (A/74/161, paras. 78, 80, 90 and 92). Norway should prohibit further exploration for fossil fuels, reject further expansion of fossil fuel infrastructure, develop a just transition strategy for workers and communities dependent on the fossil fuel industry, prohibit the expansion of the most polluting and environmentally destructive types of fossil fuel extraction, including oil and gas produced from hydraulic fracturing (fracking), the Arctic or ultra-deepwater, triple levels of investment in renewables, energy storage and energy efficiency, accelerate actions to reduce short-lived climate pollutants, boost climate finance, support the definition of a mechanism to address loss and damage, and champion the introduction of an air travel levy to finance such a mechanism. 19
