The climate case against Shell is based on an inspiring legal strategy. The building blocks of this legal strategy can be used in a wide range of climate cases against corporations and governments all over the world and are therefore the starting point of this tool. It's important to realize these building blocks do not stand alone, but are connected to each other. Furthermore, the summary of the building blocks is non-exhaustive. Extensive information can be found in the legal documents themselves. The legal documents contain valuable argumentation lines, insights, and expertise with regard to a wide range of topics such as climate science, business and human rights, scope 3 accountability, the division between courts and politics, etc.
The legal strategy and all legal documents filed by Milieudefensie in the climate case against Shell are now easily accessible and easy to find in this tool.
Milieudefensie aims to support and inspire litigators, activists, academics, students, or anyone interested in the matter, to achieve climate justice all over the world!
