re: Judge rules in favor of activists in climate trial

An interesting rant that has no relationship whatsoever to the court's ruling.

In a case that could have legal reverberations for other climate litigation, District Court Judge Kathy Seeley ruled that Montana’s continued development of fossil fuels violates a clause in its state constitution that guarantees its citizens the right to a “clean and healthful environment.” Montana is one of several states that have explicit environmental guarantees written into their state constitutions.

I guess I'll post it again, for Hanky. He loves to see me post.

If fossil fuels have no effect on a "clean and healthful" environment, then the judge's ruling is unreasonable, because she is buying into a pseudo-science religion replete with quackery, distortions of the facts, and outright lies.

If fossil fuels do have global impact on a "clean and healthful" environment, then the judge's ruling is unreasonable because there isn't a fricking thing that the judge or anyone else can do about the globe's worst polluters by orders of magnitude, China and India, not to mention all the climate hypocrites who burn more fossil fuels flying to one climate crisis meeting than all of the people of Montana will burn combined in their lifetimes.
