World1 source1 country🔦 Under-reported47m ago
ExxonMobil has petitioned the United States Supreme Court to intervene urgently to block ongoing litigation filed by local governments and communities. These lawsuits seek to hold the oil company accountable for damages attributed to climate change. The request aims to halt legal proceedings that challenge the company's liability regarding environmental impacts.
The Supreme Court recently held its first session to evaluate the broader question of whether major oil companies should be held legally responsible for climate-related damages. This judicial review carries significant implications for the future of climate litigation and the potential liability of the energy sector in the United States.
