Wisconsin Youts Sue State Over ‘Climate Change’

I’m sure this is totally their own idea, not backed by big money climate scam groups, and that the youts have made their own lives carbon neutral, right?

Youth Sue State to Overturn Laws Affecting Climate Crisis

A group of 15 young people in Wisconsin is challenging state laws that it says worsen the climate crisis and violate their constitutional rights following a landmark climate ruling in Montana.

Attorneys for environmental groups Our Children’s Trust and Midwest Environmental Advocates, or MEA, filed the lawsuit Friday against the Public Service Commission and Wisconsin Legislature in Dane County Circuit Court. Groups brought the challenge on behalf of youth ranging in ages from 8 to 17.

So, yeah, astroturfed

Youth say their health has been affected by flooding, poor air quality due to wildfire smoke, extreme heat and Lyme disease that have grown more common due to climate change.

Can they actually prove this in court? I’m sure they’ll find a nice, friendly judge to rule in their favor, instead of working through the duly elected General Assembly.

Onalaska resident and lead plaintiff Kaarina Dunn, 17, said her family was forced to move from their Vernon County home due in part to flooding driven by climate change. An avid tennis player, she said she’s also adjusted her schedule to practice in the early morning hours to avoid extreme daytime heat. “I have suffered the effects of climate change from a young age, and it has had a terrible effect on my life. But that doesn’t mean that I’m just going to continue to let them negatively affect me,” Dunn said. “I’m going to stand up for myself, and I’m going to do what’s right by having this lawsuit and leading my fellow plaintiffs in this way.”

She can totally tell the difference in the 1.6F increase since 1850.

Tony Wilkin Gibart, MEA’s executive director, said state laws that bar utility regulators from considering pollution from new fossil fuel plants and cap renewable energy requirements for utilities violate their constitutional rights.

“We believe that (their constitutional rights are) being violated by the state continuing to pump greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere and drive the climate crisis in ways that are harming our clients and profoundly disrupting their ways of life and jeopardizing the stability of their future,” Wilkin Gibart said.

Section VI of the lawsuit in the link above is about their constitutional rights, but, fails to provide one reason why as based on the Wisconsin Constitution.

151. The best available science today prescribes that global atmospheric CO2 concentrations
must be restored to less than 350 ppm by 2100 (with further reductions thereafter) to stabilize the
EEI and climate system on which Plaintiffs’ ability to meaningfully exercise their fundamental
rights depend.2

Well, if all the Warmists in the world give up their own use of fossil fuels we might get there. Otherwise, we just need to revert to an early 1800s society.
