  <abstract displayLabel="Summary">On 25 June 2026, the Paris Judicial Court ruled on the adequacy of TotalEnergies’ vigilance plan. Among other things, the Court ruled that the company's Vigilance Plan must address the greenhouse gases generated through the downstream use of its products (Scope 3 emissions). The judgment simultaneously strengthens the normative content of the Duty of Vigilance while revealing the judiciary’s reluctance to fully articulate a unified framework of corporate climate responsibility.</abstract>
