“Exercising my ‘reasoned judgment,’ I have no doubt that the right to a climate system capable of sustaining human life is fundamental to a free and ordered society.” –U.S. District Judge Ann Aiken
A group of children began a legal action against the Obama administration in 2015. It has survived various legal channels and continues today against the Trump Administration.
Do you agree or disagree with the Judge? Are Americans rights contravened when the government doesn't protect the environment? Especially children who reap the results of neglect when they come of age?
The American constitution is not that different in conferred rights than many others...but Americans do seem most practiced in turning to their Constitution for interpretations that widen the enforcement of the rights contained within...
Are the Kids right?Will they win?
