New York to appeal rulings striking down Climate Change Superfund Act
Original: NY to appeal rulings striking down Climate Change Superfund Act
New York state will appeal court rulings that struck down its Climate Change Superfund Act, a law requiring large fossil fuel companies to pay billions for climate adaptation costs. The decision to appeal keeps alive the state's effort to make polluters fund infrastructure resilience, a policy closely watched by other states considering similar climate superfund measures.
Why now: The appeal will determine whether states can compel fossil fuel companies to pay for climate damage, a precedent-setting question.
