It is on this distinction\u2014which has so far remained on the margins of climate litigation\u2014that the Paris Court of Justice has based a ruling destined to have implications far beyond the TotalEnergies case. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The judges ruled that <strong>the French group must also include climate risks related to Scope 3 emissions<\/strong>\u2014that is, those resulting from customers\u2019 use of fuels and natural gas\u2014 <strong>in its compliance plan<\/strong>. Within six months, the company will be required to submit a new risk assessment and outline the measures taken to address these risks.

The court did not halt new fossil fuel projects nor did it order a reduction in oil and gas production in line with the targets requested by the plaintiffs. The principle established, however, is set to become a legal precedent.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, for the first time, the 2017 French law on<strong> the<\/strong> duty of care of large companies is being applied in the context of climate action,<strong> recognizing that corporate obligations extend beyond direct emissions from facilities<\/strong> (Scope 1 and 2) to include those generated by the use of products placed on the market. For an oil company, this means taking into account the largest portion of its climate footprint: approximately 90% of its total emissions. <\/p>\n\n<h3 id=\"h-dal-rischio-climatico-alla-responsabilita-d-impresa\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">From Climate Risk to Corporate Responsibility  <\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the Court, TotalEnergies cannot argue that emissions produced by consumers are entirely outside its sphere of responsibility. While not attributing legal liability to the company for every action taken by its customers, the judges recognized that the energy group has sufficient leeway to ensure that such emissions are included in the risk assessment required by the regulations on the duty of care. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The coalition\u2014comprising <em>Notre Affaire \u00e0 Tous<\/em>, <em>Sherpa<\/em>, <em>France Nature Environnement<\/em>, and the City of Paris\u2014called the ruling \u201ca historic decision for French climate law.\u201d In a press release issued after the ruling, the organizations emphasized that the court recognized the existence of a climate oversight obligation extending to Scope 3 emissions and ordered the multinational corporation to update its plan within six months. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The matter, however, is not yet settled. The Court has postponed its ruling on TotalEnergies\u2019 overall climate strategy. The new monitoring plan, expected by January 2027, will determine whether the measures identified will be deemed adequate or whether the company will need to adopt additional ones.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Paris Court has ordered the multinational company to include emissions generated by the use of the fuels it sells in its monitoring plan.
