Greenpeace lies in appeal for money
Today at 7:25am
 
Greenpeace's appeal popped up on my facebook feed, including the claim of US$660 million. They are actually spending donated money on that.

In the US, a jury of nine reached a verdict in Energy Transfer’s lawsuit against Greenpeace International and Greenpeace in the US - they now face a penalty of more than US$660 million. This finding threatens Greenpeace’s very existence in the US.

The verdict is horrifying - but it’s not the end of the case. Greenpeace US will appeal the decision, and are preparing to fight it all the way to victory.

Will you help defend free speech Friend?

Judge slashes jury damages in Greenpeace case to $345 million

A North Dakota judge has nearly halved the $660 million sum Greenpeace was ordered to pay the developer of the Dakota Access Pipeline in March.

A nine-person jury had found the environmental group at fault for harming Energy Transfer during anti-pipeline protests in North Dakota in 2016 and 2017, as well as for publishing false statements to harm the company’s reputation.

The jury’s award included more than $200 million of compensatory damages — money to address financial harms — plus about $400 million in punitive damages.

In a Wednesday order, Southwest Judicial District Judge James Gion reduced the award after finding some of the jury’s damages had no legal basis, were duplicative or had exceeded statutory caps on punitive damages. The revised amount is about $345 million, according to Gion’s order.
