Shell sues Greenpeace for $2.1m in damages over fossil fuel protest in North Sea

Let's sue shell for contaminating the fucken planet

Shell has a choice. Understand the protest and reduce oil production, or continue forward so the only choice people have is to bomb oil infrastructure.

I move to put Shell as a corporation to death and use its assets to clean up the messes they've made.

Ironic

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Shell is suing Greenpeace for $2.1m in damages in one of the biggest ever legal threats against the group after its campaigners occupied a moving oil platform earlier this year.

Greenpeace has accused Shell of using “aggressive legal tactics” in an attempt to “silence growing dissent over chief executive Wael Sawan’s moves to double down on fossil fuel investment”.

Yeb Saño, the executive director of Greenpeace Southeast Asia and one of the protesters who boarded Shell’s platform, said: “Shell is trying to silence my legitimate demands: that it must stop its senseless and greedy pursuit of fossil fuels and take accountability for the destruction it is wreaking upon the world.”

The company said it incurred significant legal costs to secure two court injunctions which could prevent further boarding by protesters.

At the time, a Shell spokesperson said:“These actions are causing real safety concerns, with a number of people boarding a moving vessel in rough conditions.

“We need this case to be thrown out and for Shell to be regulated by the government because it’s clear Sawan is hell-bent on profit, regardless of human cost,” she said.
