Shell's public rhetoric and pledges emphasize that the company is shifting towards climate-friendly, low-carbon and transition strategies.[1] However, a 2022 study found that the company's spending on clean energy was insignificant and opaque, with little to suggest that the company's discourse matched its actions.[1]
In 1989, Shell redesigned a $3-billion natural gas platform in the North Sea, raising its height one to two meters, to accommodate an anticipated sea level rise due to global warming.[2] In 2013, Royal Dutch Shell PLC reported [[Greenhouse gas emissions|Template:CO2 emissions]] of 81 million metric tonnes.[3]
