ING Groep NV is being sued in the Netherlands for allegedly failing to take adequate steps to rein in its emissions.
The Dutch branch of Friends of the Earth, Milieudefensie, contends that ING “has a huge impact on the climate and must take responsibility for it,” according to the text of the suit it sent to ING on Friday. “ING must clearly report all emissions for which the company is responsible, but must also halve those emissions.”
