Exxon and Suncor Ask Supreme Court to Block Climate Suits
Original: Exxon, Suncor Bid to Block Climate Suits at US Supreme Court
Exxon Mobil and Canadian oil company Suncor have asked the US Supreme Court to intervene in climate change lawsuits brought against them by coastal communities. The companies want the justices to stop state-level suits seeking damages for climate-related harms, arguing the claims belong in federal court. The move escalates a long-running legal fight over who pays for climate change.
Why now: The Supreme Court could decide whether oil companies face climate damage suits in state courts, with major financial consequences for the industry.
