First expert statement on the likely effect of Shell's reduction obligation

We have submitted 2 expert statements to the court for the appeal in our climate court case against Shell. These statements are about the effectiveness of the judge's verdict in this court case. Here you will find the first statement.

In our lawsuit against Shell, the oil company argues that the verdict (45% CO₂ reduction by 2030) would not be effective. The company's argument: if Shell would sell less oil and gas, other companies would immediately fill that gap. This expert letter shows that this argument is invalid and that Shell's assumptions are incorrect.
