The activists also delivered a letter demanding Shell to own up to their responsibility for contributions to the climate crisis and show up at the first hearing taking place in March. The hearings are part of a world-first investigation led by Commission on Human Rights of the Philippines into how climate-related human rights harms are fueled by their business of extracting and marketing fossil fuels.
