Supreme Court allows Hawaii climate change lawsuits against energy companies to move forward

The court fight brought in Hawaii state court is similar to others filed against the nation's largest energy companies by state and local go

From the article:

The Supreme Court on Monday said it will not consider whether to quash lawsuits brought by Honolulu seeking billions of dollars from oil and gas companies for the damage caused by the effects of climate change, clearing the way for the cases to move forward. The legal battle pursued in Hawaii state court is similar to others filed against the nation's largest energy companies by state and local governments in their courts. The suits claim that the oil and gas industry engaged in a deceptive campaign and misled the public about the dangers of their fossil fuel products and the environmental impacts. A group of 15 energy companies asked the Supreme Court to review a decision from the Hawaii Supreme Court that allowed a lawsuit brought by the city and county of Honolulu, as well as its Board of Water Supply, to proceed. The suit was brought in Hawaii state court in March 2020, and Honolulu raised several claims under state law, including creating a public nuisance and failure to warn the public of the risks posed by their fossil fuel products.  The city accused the oil and gas industry of contributing to global climate change, leading to flooding, erosion and more frequent and intense extreme weather events. These changes, they said, have led to property damage and a drop in tax revenue as a result of less tourism. The energy companies unsuccessfully sought to have the case moved to federal court, arguing that the claims raised by Honolulu under state law were overridden by federal law and the Clean Air Act. A state trial court denied their efforts to dismiss the case.

Ah yes my two favorite things: gay robots and dismantling capitalism.

Jiggly Bits: The New Orleans Naked Chefs Calendar

Hey hey hey, niche post I know but food photographer Kat Kimball and the Ganza agency are putting together a naked calendar of New Orleans chefs to help raise money for WeHelpNOLA - a nonprofit that provides free mental health care for New Orleanian restaurant workers. It’s a really vital cause that always needs more support and if you want to help out while also enjoying artful and quirky nude photoshoots of local food icons, please consider buying a calendar.

And for a quick taste of what you’ll be receiving, here are some of my favorite teasers from the calendar’s official Instagram

btw now is the best time to keep boycotting. the israeli economy has never been weaker. don't stop the protests or the demands for divestment. keep supporting organisations like the Hind Rajab Foundation and the Accountability Archive. ofc don't stop boosting and donating to Palestinians as Gaza is still uninhabitable.

enjoy this moment but the work has not ended

Eyad is living in horrible circumstances and fear in Gaza, but even with his own suffering, he takes the time to work with Ever Mile to feed the hungry in Gaza. Because of the high food prices in Gaza they rely on donations to fund their charitable work. Now with Israel expanding the military operations in Gaza, his work will become much more difficult, but more important than ever.

You can support Ever Mile by donating here to help him continue his great work helping his fellow Gazans
