Philippine victims of a 2021 typhoon are seeking compensation from UK energy giant Shell over deaths and damage that they say were intensified by climate change partly resulting from the oil and gas company’s carbon emissions.

Shell says it is not legally liable for the disaster wreaked by 2021 Super Typhoon Odette, known as Typhoon Rai internationally.
