Shell Wins Appeal Against Landmark Dutch Climate Emissions Ruling
Nov 12, 2024, 08:05 AM
Shell has won its appeal against a historic 2021 Dutch court ruling that required the company to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 45% by 2030 from 2019 levels, including Scope 3 emissions. The decision, overturned by a Dutch appeals court, was initially seen as a significant precedent for corporate emissions accountability. Shell had argued that the original ruling lacked a basis under Dutch law and that rival producers could simply increase output if Shell reduced its emissions.
