  1. In my conversation with award-winning documentary filmmaker, Christi Cooper, we discuss her documentary Youth v. Gov, filmed following the lawsuit Juliana v. United States. This was one of the first significant lawsuits to hold oil companies and governments accountable for climate impacts of their activities.

  2. "Montana’s Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a landmark climate ruling in July that said the state was violating residents’ constitutional right to a clean environment by permitting oil, gas, and coal projects without regard for global warming.

    "In a 6-1 ruling, the justices rejected the state’s argument that greenhouse gases released from Montana fossil fuel projects are minuscule on a global scale and reducing them would have no effect on climate change, The Associated Press reports. They likened it to asking: “If everyone else jumped off a bridge, would you do it too?”"

  10. President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and The United States Department of Justice are trying to silence America’s youth from protecting our constitutional rights to a livable climate. Don’t let them. Demand the Juliana 21 be heard at trial.

  11. El derecho a un medio ambiente saludable, el derecho a un futuro para las generaciones más jóvenes, esos derechos que claman contra la inacción política por defenderlos (lo que implica la descarbonización rápida y por lo tanto el decrecimiento de un sistema que sigue necesitando comer cada vez más carbono), a veces son reconocidos como constitucionales (en Montana, al menos, alguna vez): europapress.es/internacional/n

  12. We’re proud to stand with the 21 @youthvgov plaintiffs in Juliana v. United States and request that the @TheJusticeDept end opposition to the case proceeding to trial.

    We urge U.S. Congress members to cosponsor the Children’s Fundamental Rights & Climate Recovery Resolution (S.Con.Res.13, H.Con.Res.56) to protect children’s rights to a healthy, sustainable future.

  13. If you have been following the #YouthvGov lawsuit and/or seen the recent #documentary about it - and even if you haven't - you may be interested in this 'fireside chat' coming up today (Thursday) in just a few hours with Julia Olson and Lou Helmuth of Our Children's Trust. They have a lot going on in their legal efforts to have federal & state governments live up to their responsibilities.
