Germanwatch vs. Volkswagen País/Territorio Alemania Fecha May 1, 2007 Fuente UNEP, InforMEA Número de referencia Decided Resumen Germanwatch alleged in its complaint that Volkswagen violated various climate obligations because of its climate damaging product range and business strategy. The complaint was grouped into categories panning the failure of VW to formulate detailed climate protection goals and insufficient compliance with self-commitment under the ACEA Agreement with the European Commission. It also accused the company of being in transparency breach by not informing its consumers about the actual fuel consumption of VW automobiles. Although the NCP notified the receipt of the complaint and forwarded it to VW, it rejected the case in November 2007 on the ground that alleged violations were outside the scope of the OECD Guidelines.Key environmental legal questions:Climate impacts of Volkswagen activities Texto completo VW_case_Complaint_English.pdf VW_Case_German_NCP_Rejects_English.pdf Página web climatecasechart.com
