Stop doom scrolling for a moment to celebrate this environmental win[1]:
> "The Montana Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a district court ruling in the nation’s first constitutional climate change trial, affirming that the youth plaintiffs have a “fundamental constitutional right to a clean and healthful environment” while revoking two Montana statutes."
@ike Interesting. Let’s see where this goes. But looking like a model for states becoming the new battlefield for democracy.
@CWilbur Would love to see youth start a movement to do this in other states (if there are state laws / constitutions that would enable them to do so).
The next generation need to wake up and understand what is going on and fight for their future and the future of ther peers, so the country has a decent chance of surviving in a global world that is based on science and common sense, rather than hatred which is where the US is heading, and heading fast.
@zleap @ike @CWilbur We need to do what we can to empower them to do that. Give them the self-respect and reliance to make a stand. Give them the tools they need to do so. As much as we possibly can.
