The highest court in the nation refused to listen to a petition that would revive a remarkable climate change against the Federal Government, led by young Oregons and their peers from all over the country.
The court’s refusal ends a 21-year fight for 21 young people for a process in which they can hold the US government responsible for speeding up global climate change through lawmaker policies and fossil subsidies. Despite the failure, he encouraged dozens of more cases like him in individual countries and around the world.
The nine members of the US Supreme Court refused on Monday a request to dismiss a court ruling to dismiss Julian’s case against the United States. The Supreme Court judges rejected the request without prejudice, which means that the plaintiffs could try to return it one day.
Джулиана срещу Съединените щати са подадени за първи път в Окръжния съд на САЩ в Евгений през 2015 г. Единадесет младежи от Орегон и 10 от техните връстници от Аляска, Аризона, Колорадо, Флорида, Хаваи, Луизиана, Ню Йорк, Пенсилвания и Вашингтон, които са били между 8 и 18 години по времето, което е подадено, са изброени като ищеца.
Among them is Miko Vergin of Beyverton, who said in a news message that he is proud of the impact that the case has given more than 60 similar cases brought against other countries and nations.
“For almost ten years, we have argued for the rights of current and future generations requiring a world in which we can not only survive, but also blower,” Verjun said. “We were confronted with exceptional resistance from the federal government, but we have never hesitated in our determination.”
Vergin, who is already 22 years old, has participated in climate activism as she was in the seventh grade, according to the confidence of our children. She was born on the Marshall Islands, the Pacific Island and attributes her activism to make sure the Earth remains above sea level.
In the United States, the Juliana case has recently inspired the Montana and Navahin State against the Hawaii Ministry of Transport, and both led to 2024 decisions confirming the state constitutional rights of the claimants of a clean, healthy and supportive living environment.
Since 2015, fossil fuel companies, US Department of Justice, former President Joe Biden, current President Donald Trump, and Republican General Commands have filed court documents to dismiss the case and keep him in court.
Most recently, in May, three judges appointed by Trump of the 9th round of Appellate Court in San Francisco have faced the US Department of Justice to dismiss the case. In June, Julia Olson, a lawyer of the youth behind the case, filed a request for re -examination with the ninth round.
Oregon’s US senator Ron Wayden, Democrat, filed a “friend of the court,” calling for the court to provide it. It was signed by 39 other Democrats in the Congress, including Oregon senator Jeff Merkli, state representative Val Hoyle, representing the Fourth Oregon Congress and former State Reporter Earl Bloomnauer, who represents the 3rd Oregon Congress.
“The Supreme Court’s decision today is not the end of the road and the impact of Juliana It cannot be measured only by the finalness of this case, “Olson said in a news message.
Olson said confidence would continue to support other cases around the world and that he would soon see the US government in court. The Supreme Court did not proceed to the merits of the case, and the confidence of our children noted in its news message that the court listened to less than 2% of the cases that are worn every year.
“This battle is far from over,” Olson said. “This is a call to all young people who want to face those in the President’s Executive Service who would warm you up and threaten your health and safety – join us in protecting your constitutional rights.”
