Greenpeace International announced it intends to file a first-of-its-kind lawsuit against Energy Transfer, a United States (US) fossil fuel company. The environmental group has sent a Notice of Liability to Energy Transfer, arguing that the company has engaged in a campaign of abusive lawsuits against Greenpeace International, which is prohibited under the recently adopted European Union anti-SLAPP Directive. Greenpeace International is demanding that Energy Transfer drop the lawsuit against it and provide compensation for the damages and costs Greenpeace International has allegedly suffered as a result of the enduring litigation pursued by Energy Transfer.
