Welcome to the first NewGround Law ESG weekly NEWsletter.

At NewGround Law, we recognise the importance of Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG), both to our firm and our clients. We are not the only ones who think this. The values and principles relating to the three aspects of ESG are already significantly altering capital flows, stakeholder engagement as well as national and international regulation. We vow to stay ahead of these trends. We believe that doing so will place us in an optimum position to capitalise on these changes as they materialise.Hence, the experts at NewGround Law have created a weekly newsletter to help those around us stay on top of the key developments shaping the ESG landscape across Europe.

Escalating Its Legal Strategy, Greenpeace Netherlands Petitions Dutch Court For Information On Meat Producer JBS’ Climate Impacts To Build Future Case

Greenpeace Netherlands has filed a petition in Dutch court to compel global meat producer JBS to disclose detailed information about its greenhouse gas emissions, supply chain practices, and expansion plans. This legal action follows JBS's rejection of an earlier demand letter and could establish precedent for using Dutch evidence-gathering procedures to build climate cases against agricultural and other high-emission industries that have largely avoided climate litigation.
