Activists sue BNP over energy loans, TotalEnergies over human rights
Oxfam, Friends of the Earth and Notre Affaire à Tous argue BNP Paribas loans to oil and gas firms breach a legally binding duty in France to ensure its activities do not harm the environment. Separately, the MENA rights group sued TotalEnergies on behalf of two people who say they were subjected to detention and torture by UAE forces at the Balhaf gas liquefaction plant operated by Yemen LNG, in which the energy major is the biggest shareholder with a 39.6% stake.
