- Summary
- A report on Juliana versus the United States, an unusual lawsuit filed by 12 young Americans, including children, against the federal government for denying constitutional rights to a stable environment by failing to stop the use of fossil fuels. The lawsuit claims the government was aware of the link between greenhouse gases and global warming, going back fifty years -- beginning with the presidency of Lyndon Johnson, yet made no effort to convene. Includes interviews with: Kelsey Juliana, plaintiff; Levi Draheim, plaintiff; Julia Olson, Oregon lawyer, executive director of non-profit Our Children's Trust; Ann Carlson, environmental law professor, UCLA; and Jayden Foytlin, plaintiff.
