Supreme Court case to decide if Big Oil pays for climate damage

Original: Should Big Oil pay for climate change? A Supreme Court case will help decide.

The US Supreme Court is set to hear a case that could determine whether major oil companies can be held financially liable for the damages caused by climate change. The outcome may shape the future of lawsuits brought by states and cities seeking to make fossil fuel producers cover costs of extreme weather, sea-level rise and adaptation.

Why now: The case could establish landmark legal precedent on corporate accountability for climate change.
