Unpopular opinion re: #COP30: diesen titanischen Kampf zwischen "fossilen Bremserstaaten" und "erneuerbaren Antreiberstaaten" gibt es nicht,

Fast alle Regierungen der Erde setzen auf eine "all of the above"-Energiepolitik, bauen Fossile UND Erneuerbare aus. Alles andere ist Mythos.

"According to Stateline Operating, the disposal of wastewater in close proximity to its producing assets by Devon and Aris had caused 'permanent damage to Stateline’s wells and production, and irrevocably lost oil and gas in place.'”

Oil companies are suing each other in the Permian basin as their greed driven drilling and water disposal practices are damaging reserves.

Oil and gas companies are suing each other of LNG contracts.

And this is while oil and gas demand is still growing.

The infighting will get vicious.

The German long term partners of Venture Global (ie SEFE & EnBW) should better pay attention!

🗣️ Community members are speaking out 🗣️

The burden of INEOS’ Project One's is invisible in its environmental impact assessment.

But it cannot be invisible in court.

This case, filed by @clientearth.bsky.social and partners, is precisely what accountability is for: To bring the entire chain of impact into view before we get locked into decades of harm from new fossil infrastructure.

The landmark case will weigh full-lifecycle emissions: For the 1st time, a court will weigh Scope 3 emissions for plastics — the full climate footprint from fracked feedstocks to waste incineration.

⚖️ The law requires the whole system to be seen, not just what fits inside the fence line.

The problem: INEOS drastically understated the climate + health impacts of the project. New independent research shows Project One would bring:
🏭 3.8M tons of CO₂e/yr
🫁 More early deaths from pollution than the jobs it will bring.

Pollution from Ineos’s Antwerp plastic plant ‘could cause more deaths than jobs created’
Lawyers challenge €4bn Project One development, saying emissions and health impacts vastly underestimated

This case is indeed way bigger than Antwerp.

It is a test of whether Europe will apply its own climate laws to stop the fossil-to-plastic buildout — and choose a just transition instead of locking in decades of fossil fuel dependence.

Europe does not need more plastics‼️

A transatlantic movement is rising: the lawsuit comes just after community members from U.S. fracking hotspots and petrochemical hubs visited Antwerp — joining forces with locals to highlight the global costs of petrochemical expansion. 🌍✊

🚨NEW plastics lawsuit just landed, targeting INEOS’s Project One in Antwerp.

Why? This €4bn #Plastics project would cause 5x more emissions than INOES claimed — and drive serious health harms. This is #PlasticAccountability!
