Supreme Court weighs bid to block major climate lawsuit
Original: Supreme Court wrestles with energy companies' bid to block major climate-change lawsuit
The US Supreme Court is hearing arguments over energy companies' attempt to halt a major climate-change lawsuit brought against them. The case, covered by CBS News, could determine whether the lawsuit proceeds and could shape how far states or cities can hold fossil fuel firms liable for climate damages. The court's handling of the dispute is being closely watched by both industry and climate advocates.
Why now: The Supreme Court's consideration of the case could set a precedent for climate liability litigation against energy companies.
