Quotes by Milieudefensie: [transl]
"The science is crystal clear: there is no more room to tap new oil and gas fields now. Even if all oil and gas were extracted from existing fields, the earth would already warm up by far more than 1.5 degrees. The judge is also clear: tapping new oil and gas fields is against the Paris climate agreement."
"This is our demand to Shell
We demand that Shell stops developing new oil and gas fields. With this, Shell prevents 36x the emissions of the whole of the Netherlands. We also demand that Shell reduces its total emissions step by step between 2030 and 2050 with concrete reduction targets in line with the Paris climate agreement."
"How this lawsuit makes a difference for the climate and people
* This climate lawsuit prevents us from having to go to court for every new oil and gas field. That takes far too long.
* With this case, Shell’s new oil and gas fields can be banned in one fell swoop.
* If Shell stops drilling new oil and gas fields, this would prevent no less than 5.2 billion tons of CO₂ emissions - that is 36 times the annual emissions of the entire Netherlands!
Shell has 700 new oil and gas fields worldwide that it can put into use. According to science, these fields are not an option if we want to prevent dangerous climate change. Moreover, scientists have calculated that there is enough oil and gas in existing fields to meet the global energy demand*. Shell leaves us no other choice: we go to court and start a Climate Case.
*This concerns the expected global demand for oil and gas in a scenario in which global warming is limited to 1.5 degrees."
