They are legally demanding that Volkswagen, BMW and Mercedes significantly accelerate the climate-friendly conversion of their companies: By 2030, the three German automakers are to stop building climate-damaging internal combustion vehicles worldwide, and the oil and natural gas company Wintershall Dea must stop developing new oil and gas fields from 2026. For the first time since the landmark climate ruling of the Federal Constitutional Court, environmental associations are taking legal action against climate-damaging corporations, Greenpeace against VW, DUH against BMW, Mercedes and Wintershall Dea. The plaintiffs include the executives of the associations and the Fridays for Future activist Clara Mayer.In this picture: Attorney Dr. Roda VerheyenIn original language:Klima-Klage gegen Deutsche KonzerneDie Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH) und Greenpeace kündigen heute Klagen gegen deutsche Konzerne wegen mangelndem Klimaschutz an. Sie fordern Volkswagen, BMW und Mercedes juristisch auf, den klimafreundlichen Umbau ihrer Unternehmen deutlich zu beschleunigen: Bis zum Jahr 2030 sollen die drei deutschen Autohersteller weltweit den Bau klimaschädlicher Verbrenner stoppen, das Öl- und Erdgasunternehmen Wintershall Dea muss ab 2026 die Erschließung neuer Öl- und Gasfelder beenden. Erstmals nach dem wegweisenden Klimaurteil des Bundesverfassungsgerichts gehen Umweltverbände juristisch gegen klimaschädliche Konzerne vor, Greenpeace gegen VW, die DUH gegen BMW, Mercedes und Wintershall Dea. Kläger:innen sind u.a. die Geschäftsführenden der Verbände sowie die Fridays-for-Future-Aktivistin Clara Mayer.In diesem Bild: Rechtsanwältin Dr. Roda VerheyenLocations:Berlin-GermanyDate:3 Sep, 2021Credit:© Mike Schmidt / GreenpeaceMaximum size:5197px X 3468pxKeywords:Camera equipment-Climate (campaign title)-Court cases-Day-Indoors-Journalism-KWCI (GPI)-Law-Lawyers-Political concepts-Press conferences-Urban Mobility (campaign title)-Volkswagen (VW)Shoot:Climate Lawsuit in Berlin against German CorporationsDeutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH) and Greenpeace announce lawsuits against German corporations for failing to protect the climate.
