Supreme Court Opens Term With Big Oil Climate Suit Fight
Original: US Supreme Court to kick off term with bid by Big Oil to toss climate suits
The US Supreme Court begins its new term with a request from major oil companies to throw out climate liability lawsuits brought by states and municipalities seeking damages for climate change harm. The justices will decide whether the cases can proceed in state courts, a ruling with major implications for how fossil fuel firms can be held financially accountable.
Why now: The Supreme Court's decision on whether climate damages lawsuits can proceed is a landmark test for corporate accountability on climate change.
