Abstract
- Shell Plc and Greenpeace have settled a legal dispute regarding climate activists boarding a Shell offshore vessel in the UK North Sea for 13 days. Shell sought $900,000 in damages, while Greenpeace faced potential damages and costs of up to $11 million. Greenpeace agreed to pay £300,000 to the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and refrain from protesting at four Shell offshore facilities in the region. The UK North Sea has become a contentious area between climate activists and oil companies, with ongoing legal battles challenging fossil fuel developments. [Extracted from the article]
