The Hague, Netherlands | AFP – Dutch judges ruled Tuesday against an appeal by climate groups who said oil giant Shell was not doing enough to curb its greenhouse gas emissions, striking down a landmark judgement three years ago.

“The court’s final judgement is that Milieudefensie’s claims cannot be granted. The Appeals Court is therefore quashing the original judgement,” judge Carla Joustra told the Hague Appeals Court.
