Supreme Court Hears Arguments in Landmark Climate Change Liability Case

The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments in *Suncor Energy (U.S.A.) Inc. v. County Commissioners of Boulder County*, a case that could significantly impact state and local governments' ability to address public and environmental health threats from climate change. Boulder County, Colorado, and the City of Boulder contend that oil companies, including ExxonMobil and Suncor Energy, intentionally misled the public about climate change impacts and should be held financially responsible for local damages under state law.
