Shell wins appeal in landmark emissions case

Shell has won its appeal against a climate court ruling that it must sharply reduce its carbon emissions. The oil and gas producer went to the Court of Appeal in the Netherlands following a decision in support of environmental campaign groups in the country, including Friends Of The Earth. That ruling, in 2021, ordered Shell to cut its carbon emissions by 45% by 2030 compared to 2019 levels in order to protect Dutch citizens.
