The second court day in Peruvian farmer Saúl versus German coal major RWE.

3 hours ago, so at 6pm, the session was closed. Decision will be announced on April 14.

The long live ticker, here near the end, where Sébastien logs RWE's closing statement:

I don't know how such a long thread displays if you're not logged in. So I chose to link to a posting near the end of a thread. Hope it's working out alright.

Bluesky Social · 🌍⚖️ Sébastien Duyck (@duycks.bsky.social)54/ We are now turning to RWE's closing statement. "This is a litigation for the public" 🤔a curious argument for a defendant that was reminded BY THE PRESIDING JUDGE to stop fearmongering & bad faith in its public discourse in relation to the ongoing trial.

Important court day. A farmer from Peru is suing German coal major RWE for contributing to climate change which is bound to cause a rockslide into the glacial lake uphill from the farner's honetown.. and drown them all... unless an expensive protection dam is built. The cost of which RWE shall have to pay.
The verdict by the first instance court in 2017 denied the argument.
Today's court, Oberlandesgericht Hamm, starts from scratch. The judges even did an onsite visit in 2022 as preparation.
And they appointed a court expert on specific climate attribution, too...who, it turns out, is on the side of RWE... See the second to last post in below thread...

Here's a live ticker from the court room. This is the last post in the thread:

Next court day is Wednesday.

Bluesky Social · 🌍⚖️ Sébastien Duyck (@duycks.bsky.social)30/ 👋 And it's a wrap for today! Judge Meyer suspends the hearing - the expert's cross-examination will continue on Wed. 🔎 I will share shortly on this platform a brief recap of today's highlights: while today's hearing was quite technical, some key lessons can already be drawn.
