Supreme Court hears landmark climate case pitting activists against big oil

Original: 'Rich hippies' versus big oil. Supreme Court hears landmark climate change case

The US Supreme Court has heard a landmark climate change case, framed as wealthy environmental activists — described as 'rich hippies' — taking on major oil companies. The outcome could shape how far courts can hold fossil fuel producers liable for climate damage, a question with major consequences for future climate litigation across the United States.

Why now: A Supreme Court ruling on climate liability against oil companies would have far-reaching legal and economic consequences.
