Supreme Court to hear Boulder's climate case against Suncor

Original: SCOTUS to hear Boulder's case against Suncor, setting a precedent for climate change cases

The US Supreme Court has agreed to hear Boulder, Colorado's lawsuit against oil company Suncor, a case the city hopes will hold fossil fuel producers financially responsible for climate change damages. The decision to take up the case could set a national precedent affecting similar climate liability suits brought by cities and states across the country.

Why now: The Supreme Court's involvement could determine the outcome of climate liability lawsuits nationwide.
