Very big step in climate litigation, even if only a trial court decision. Non-party (country) voluntary embrace of Paris Agreement norms, as in #RaceToZero, are moving us forward and faster.

Yup. Read this 4 more specifics on ruling’s legal basis. Holding Shell responsible for Scope 3 emissions reminds me of 1st-wave climate litigation from NSW courts in early 00s mandating enviro impact analysis of additional fossil fuel used when permitting expanded drilling.

Important article to read! Small is not always beautiful, especially when offloading methane-producing operations is part of big oil’s greening strategy.

NEJM+Lancet common stand on #climatechange is big. But heads up, #CBD COP has been postponed, due to Covid. That’s big too. nytimes.com/2021/09/07/cli…

Big news in advance of #COP26. Peeling off methane is doable, akin to the #MontrealProtocol’s laser focus on refrigerants. Taking a page from the pre Paris playbook. More Than 30 Countries Join U.S. Pledge to Slash Methane Emissions nytimes.com/2021/10/11/cli…

One does not "believe" in climate science. You either understand what our civilization is doing to the natural world or you don't.

As a VT Senator, I helped pass VT’s landmark climate law, the Global Warming Solutions Act, & invest $100 million in weatherization efforts for low-and moderate-income VTers. In Congress, I’ll continue fighting to address climate change & make an economy that works for all.
