Good news today. The Labour govt will NOT defend the Tory govt’s decision to approve the #Rosebank oil field in court. Equinor and the regulator NSTA may still do so. Even so today’s developments make it more likely the decision to approve the oilfield will be ruled unlawful.
The #StopRosebank campaign is taking the UK government to court for approving the climate-wrecking Rosebank oil field - the biggest untapped oil field in the UK! I’ve asked that the case be put forward in my name.
Scientists have warned global leaders time and time again that governments can't allow any more new oil and gas if we want to limit global warming to 1.5C. Adding new reserves, like Rosebank, will push us closer to more parts of our world becoming uninhabitable. It would bust climate targets, undermining the government’s climate commitments.
Can you tell the Government that this case is also in your name here? https://www.stopcambo.org.uk/p/courtcase?source=email&;
