The Supreme Court is declining to hear an appeal from oil and gas companies trying to block lawsuits seeking to hold the industry liable for billions of dollars in damage linked to climate change.
That’s not how this works and a golf club isn’t a court. This means the lawsuit can proceed. If they had already decided to rule in O&G’s favor on this, they would have done so by hearing the case and making a ruling in their favor.
This means they’re declining to have the case brought forward before the Supreme Court, effectively ruling against the petro companies. It’s really quite a surprising turn of events.
Did someone forget to pay the bribes?!!
Nah, more like “we already heard your arguments at the golf club. No reason to listen again, we’re already going to rule in your favor.”
