Abstract

Shell and Greenpeace have settled a lawsuit regarding climate activists boarding a Shell offshore vessel in the UK North Sea for 13 days. Greenpeace agreed to pay £300,000 to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and not protest at four Shell offshore facilities. The UK North Sea is a contentious area where climate activists oppose fossil fuel developments, while companies like Shell continue to see profit in tapping new discoveries. Shell maintains the importance of the right to protest, while Greenpeace vows to keep campaigning against the fossil fuel industry. [Extracted from the article]
