Big Oil asks US Supreme Court to halt climate lawsuits
Original: Facing climate lawsuits, Big Oil again turns to US Supreme Court
Major oil companies are once again asking the US Supreme Court to intervene in state and local climate lawsuits seeking damages for climate-related harms. The industry wants the justices to block or limit these cases, arguing they should be decided federally rather than in state courts, as litigation over corporate responsibility for climate change intensifies across the United States.
Why now: New filings asking the Supreme Court to weigh in on high-stakes climate liability lawsuits against oil companies have drawn attention.
