US$ 345 million.That’s what Greenpeace International and Greenpeace entities in the US have been ordered to pay.

This is not over!All Greenpeace entities involved will appeal this ruling in the US.
And Greenpeace International is already taking Energy Transfer to court in the Netherlands under the EU’s anti-SLAPP directive.
