flag Oceana UK is suing the UK government over 31 oil & gas exploration licenses, claiming failure to consider marine life impact.

flag Marine conservation organization Oceana UK is suing the UK government over 31 new oil and gas exploration licenses granted by the previous administration in May. flag The group alleges that the government failed to consider the environmental impact on marine life, despite the UK's commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. flag Oceana UK, along with other members of the Ocean Alliance Against Offshore Drilling, have called on Britain's Energy Secretary Ed Miliband to concede to their legal challenge, which could signal a departure from the previous government's reliance on fossil fuels. flag This case is part of a growing trend of campaigners using legal action to force governments to act more quickly on tackling emissions.
