a south african court has blocked shells oil exploration
Shell was barred from “undertaking seismic survey operations,” according to the court’s decision, which went into effect immediately. The fossil-fuel behemoth planned to start exploring 6,000 square kilometers of ocean off the coast of South Africa. The Wild Coast is dotted with a marine stretch that is home to nature reserves, making it an environmentally sensitive area.
Shell’s survey application was “unlawful and invalid,” according to the judge, because consultations with coastal communities were “substantially flawed.” This decision brings to an end a legal battle that saw thousands of people gather on beaches across the country to protest.
