A Dutch court overturned a ruling ordering the energy company Shell to cut its carbon emissions by 45% by 2030. Shell argued that requiring one company to reduce emissions will not reduce the demand for oil globally.
The Hague overturned the District Court of The Hague’s 2021 ruling in the case brought against Shell in 2019 by Milieudefensie/Friends of the Earth Netherlands, ActionAid NL, Both ENDS, Fossielvrij NL, Greenpeace NL, Young Friends of the Earth NL, Waddenvereniging, and more than 17,000 citizen plaintiffs who sought a ruling that Shell must reduce its CO2 emissions in line with the Paris Climate Agreement.
“As Shell has stated previously, a court ruling would not reduce overall customer demand for products such as petrol and diesel for cars, or for gas to heat and power homes and businesses. It would do little to reduce emissions, as customers would take their business elsewhere. We believe that smart policies from governments, along with investment and action across all sectors, will drive the progress towards net-zero emissions that we all want to see,” the company said in a statement.
I challenge all of You climate believers to give Up All fossil fuel generated entities. If you’re so worried about fossil fuels, why do you keep using them? Why do you allow the rich to run around in their Jets? Why do you not protest wars that Pollute way more than a car?
You claim it control people need to lead if you’re so set on destroying fossil fuels lead the way.
I want to fly my private jet to climate summits. I want the rest of the world to stand in line for their daily bowl of gruel.
A good audit of those environmental organizations would undoubtedly open a real can of worms. Lots of dark money from the likes of Soros and China. It’s not about the environment, it’s about dismantling our society.
The global impact of Donald Trump is being felt long before January 20th.
Why do so many in the US/EU believe that foreign countries are our #1 enemy, when our own governments, political parties, shady NGOs and “environmental” lawfare gangs inflict damage that no foreign enemy could ever achieve?
Destroying a nation’s energy sources, pipelines, and electric grids is the first act of war by a hostile power. But our enemies are internal.
Absolutely right!
Because the Davos crowd of elites (read that as parasites) are way better at marketing and advertising than the average person is.

Remember, the climate change folks travel in luxury, eat prime beef and lobster, and enjoy several massive houses, but you must live in small apartments, own nothing, and eat bugs to save the world.
How’s that Hillcorp Cook Inlet drilling issue that Judge Sharon Gleason shut down going? Are we still projected to be out of gas to heat our homes by 2026?
“net-zero emissions that we all want to see” ????? Who is “we all”?
If the human race could develop some source of energy that would not emit any pollutants or other potentially harmful items, that would be fantastic.
.
But, that is not how the universe works. There is this thing called the Laws of Thermodynamics where it is clearly stated that energy cannot be created or destroyed, but only changed in form. (Conservation of energy). Until now, only one person has been able to violate that law, and he is not going to be born for another three centuries. (Chief Engineer Montgomery Scott, we need you!)
.
What these politicians are doing is trying to force the human race to develop these magical energy devices by preventing us from using existing ones. And, sorry, won’t work. But, it will ensure the elitists will be able to continue living their lives of luxury while us lower class people live in tin shacks…
