With little time to act before temperatures will surpass the 1.5 degree benchmark, activists have ramped up their efforts to hold oil companies accountable for climate change.

Should've drilled for my own damn oil.

They were also ordered to restore all Glaciers that have melted in the last 200 years.

Shell should start by cutting off all petroleum product sales to that courts area.

[crusty old prospector]

How can Shell cut emissions? They ain’t the one burning the gasoline.

Will a global warming alarmist please explain why CO2 fails to keep the air warm under a midday solar eclipse where temperatures in the path of the shadow of an eclipse have been recorded to dip by double digits in some places.

Here’s other cold weather events, some relatively recent, that global warming alarmists have failed to predict.

When did the Paris accords become law in any country.

Do these Dutch judges realize that, if upheld, this decision will cost thousands of Dutchmen and women to lose their jobs?

[stuck_in_new_orleans]

Or the judge will do what?

[The MAGA-Deplorian]

Cutoff all oil production to the Netherlands. When they start starving, tell them they will only turn on productuion only after every Judges throats in the Hauge are slit. Bleed us, we bleed you!

[TigersEye]

There is no point in reducing CO2 emissions. History shows that something else, something much more powerful, will change the climate.

Too bad no one is interested in finding out what it was, if it might happen again and whether we can do anything about it.

[Zathras]

How can you be ordered to follow a guideline no country in the world has signed?
Clearly this is their plan to use hand picked judges to mandate from the bench.
No law is ever passed and the left doesn’t have to face angry voters.

What I think has been missed in this thread is the larger implication for freedom: the Netherlands, a country proud for its rich tradition of liberty, has sunk to the point where a Court (the State) can literally take over a multi-billion dollar energy company and dictate its policies, mission and business model. Of course, courts throughout the free world have the power to uphold or strike down actions based on the rule of law as applied in particular cases, but this ruling is way beyond any of that.

This is also a portent of things to come under Green New Deal laws: if they can do this to companies, they can do it to individuals. Your entire lifestyle is subject to their whims: what you can drive, whether you can drive, whether you can have fuel for your pleasure craft, motor home or other recreational vehicles and activities, whether you can fly in an airplane, heat or cool your home as you please, barbecue, fire pit, fireplace, lawnmower, chainsaw, weedwhacker, etc. all gone.

We have been talking about these impacts for a while now, but this Dutch Court ruling is a real-world example that we are not merely speculating. This is the power the State is willing to wield and your freedom be damned.
