A German court rejected a lawsuit from Peruvian farmer Saúl Luciano Lliuya against energy company RWE, which he claimed contributed to glacier melting in Peru, threatening his hometown Huaraz. Lliuya sought €17,000 for flood defense but the court ruled the flood risk was insufficient for the case to proceed. Despite the dismissal, the ruling acknowledged that energy companies could be held liable for climate change-related costs, marking a significant moment for climate activists.
