Shell was ordered yesterday by a court in Lagos to end its practice of “flaring” off excess natural gas at oil fields in Nigeria within 12 months.
The company has been given six weeks to come up with a detailed plan for the Iwherekan region to halt flaring, considered one of the worst causes of global warming.
The ruling follows an earlier judgment in favour of local resident Jonah Gbemre and the Iwherekan community. Nigeria is the world's biggest gas flarer and the practice is said to provide more greenhouse gas emissions than all other combined sources in sub-Saharan Africa.

The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
