President Obama, Settle the Oregon “Earth Guardians” Civil Rights Suit

Created by R.M. on November 14, 2016

President Obama, settle the lawsuit Kelsey Cascadia Rose Juliana et al v. United States of America currently before Judge Aiken in Oregon's Federal Court.

This lawsuit is brought by a group of children, and a climate change scientist, who argue that young people have a right to a stable and livable environment in the future.

Aiken has already ruled that there is “no doubt that the right to a climate system capable of sustaining human life is fundamental to a free and ordered society.”

If the Obama Administration settles, reasonably, the next President would have to abide by the legally-binding agreement, or spend a lot of time trying to overturn it.
