"Supreme Court Rejects Exxon and Koch Industries' Climate Case Appeal"
The US Supreme Court has rejected a request by Exxon Mobil Corp, Koch Industries, and the American Petroleum Institute to move a climate change lawsuit filed by Minnesota from state court to federal court. The decision allows the case to proceed in state court, where it was originally filed, and aligns with similar decisions in courts across the country. The lawsuit accuses the energy industry of deceptive marketing to undermine climate science and seeks to hold them accountable for economic damages tied to climate change.
