campaign are going to court over the catastrophic decision to approve Rosebank.

Last September, the previous UK government approved the development of the controversial Rosebank oil field. We believe that this decision is not just a disaster for the climate, and morally and economically wrong, but unlawful.

For decades, fossil fuels companies have gotten away with disclosing only the pollution caused by getting the oil and gas out the ground, while completely omitting the devastating harm from actually burning it.

Burning Rosebank's oil and gas would produce more CO2 than the 28 poorest countries do in a year. Claims that Rosebank is compatible with the UK’s obligations and a safe climate don't add up - and we will prove it in court.
