Kagan: Citizens Should Sue Companies For Causing Global Warming - Minnesotans For Global Warming

Environmental issues dominated the last portion of the questioning, with Feinstein asking about the reach of the Environmental Protection Agency and the ability of citizens to sue companies for contributing to pollution and global warming. Normally, citizens can only bring cases if they have been personally "injured," but environmental injury is a gray area.

"Do you believe it's possible for citizens to demonstrate that environmental harms have injured them for constitutional purposes?" Feinstein asked.

"The answer is yes, much depending on what Congress does," Kagan replied.

Nature Magazine Covers Video Controversy - Minnesotans For Global Warming

We weren't quoted but they did include an image form our second video "Hide the Decline II". The thing that I found interesting from this article is now "Global Warming" Scientists seem to be more interested in the polls about what people believe than what the temperature is doing.

Instead of graphs tracking global temperature these charts are tracking if people "believe" in Global Warming or not and what kind of support there is for carbon taxes.

The article says nothing about what the scientist were caught saying in their emails and if they were fraudulent or not, but rather about how to do damage control. They want to "humanize climate scientists" to regain the public's trust. Here's an idea stop lying to us

But my gut tells me that Al Gore did something illegal and immoral in a Portland hotel room in 2006, and that is something that should not be taken lightly, and should not be minimized.

Humans are rarely all evil or all good. Al Gore's actions in Portland in 2006 don't eliminate the good he's done on global warming.
