The UK Supreme Court has ruled in favor of environmental activists, overturning Surrey County Council's decision to grant planning permission for an oil development in Horley. The court determined that the council should have considered the climate impacts of burning oil drilled from new wells. This landmark ruling, driven by a legal challenge from former Surrey resident Sarah Finch and supported by law firm Leigh Day, has significant implications for future UK oil and gas policies. Environmental groups, including Weald Action Group and Friends of the Earth, celebrated the decision, highlighting it as a major step towards a fossil-free future. The ruling is expected to influence the government's stance on issuing new oil and gas licenses.
