ClimaLawfare: Climate Cult Gets Rare Win In Montana Supreme Court Case

And then the court immediately ordered that all the plaintiffs must end their own use of fossil fuels, give up eating meat, no longer use lots of energy for their Instagram and Tiktok and streaming shows, have to make their own clothes and/or buy used, and stop wearing warm coats and boots made with petroleum in the very cold Montana winters….well, that’s what should have happened

Montana supreme court upholds right to ‘stable climate system’ for youngsters

Montana’s top court on Wednesday held that the state’s constitution guaranteed a right to a stable climate system and invalidated a law barring regulators from considering the effects of greenhouse gas emissions when permitting new fossil fuel projects.

The Montana supreme court upheld a landmark trial court decision last August in favor of 16 young people who said their health and futures were being jeopardized by climate change, which the state aggravates through its permitting of energy projects.

The 6-1 decision, the first of its kind by a US state supreme court, came in the first lawsuit to go to trial nationwide by young environmental activists challenging state and federal policies they say are exacerbating climate change.

Nate Bellinger, a lawyer for the plaintiffs at the non-profit Our Children’s Trust, in a statement said the ruling “affirmed the constitutional rights of youth to a safe and livable climate, confirming that the future of our children cannot be sacrificed for fossil fuel interests”.

And the 6 court judges have given up their own use of fossil fuels, as has Bellinger and the astroturfing folks at Our Children’s Trust, right? Anyhow, what is a stable climate? Is there such a thing? It was as warm if not warmer during multiple Holocene warm periods, as well as much cooler multiple times.

So, what are the plans of the youts to make their own lives carbon neutral? Also, I’m looking forward to the whining when their cost of living goes up and life choices go down.
