TotalEnergies must report risks caused by emissions, Paris court rules By America Hernandez
PARIS, June 25 - French oil major TotalEnergies TTEF.PA must report the risks caused by the emissions from its oil and gas products on climate change and lay out plans to address those risks, a Paris court ruled on Thursday.
The lawsuit is a partial victory for climate change NGOs who were seeking to apply France's 2017 corporate duty of vigilance law to climate change, though the court stopped short of imposing concrete measures on the company such as limiting its overseas exploration and production.
