In this episode of the American Bar Association's Environmental Law Explored podcast, Rhys Davies joins Natalia Urzola of the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University to discuss the Court of Appeal's decision in The Hague, Netherlands, in Shell v. Milieudefensie.
The podcast explores the Court’s ruling in the context of existing and upcoming EU regulatory frameworks, including the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive and the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive.
