Even in this clear climate crisis, rulings like this show how powerful the fossil fuel industry still is: The Court of Appeal in The Hague has dismissed Milieudefensie’s and Greenpeace’s claims against Shell. According to the court, the company does have a “duty of care” to combat dangerous climate change, but Shell cannot be forced to set specific percentages by which it must reduce CO2 emissions. greenpeace.org/international/p… #greenpeace #milieudefensie #climatecrisis #environment #shel #fossilfuels

And in Germany still people are worried that heat pumps might not work here because it's "too cold in the winter" (when actually it rarely goes below -12°C here and in the much colder Scandinavian countries heat pumps are perfectly normal for years now).
#Fakenews have even led some to rush and buy new gas heating because they were made to believe the Green party would plan on banning them.
#FossilFuels lobbying is on a wild rampage here since the Greens are part of the government.
