    Good on them, hope more cases follow this precedent. We all inhabit the same planet and should have a vested interest in keeping it liveable.

    Youth plaintiffs did not ask for any damages beyond their attorneys’ fees and costs, which were awarded by the court. To young people suing, winning is seemingly just about pushing the state to embrace climate science and mitigate known harms moving forward.

    Mad respect. People over profits.
