A landmark climate-change lawsuit brought by young people against the US government can proceed, the Supreme Court said on 2 November. The case, Juliana v. United States, had been scheduled to begin trial on 29 October in Eugene, Oregon, in a federal district court. But those plans were scrapped last month after President Donald Trump’s administration asked the Supreme Court to intervene and dismiss the case.
The plaintiffs, who include 21 people ranging in age from 11 to 22, allege that the government has violated their constitutional rights to life, liberty and property by failing to prevent dangerous climate change. They are asking the district court to order the federal government to prepare a plan that will ensure the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere falls below 350 parts per million by 2100, down from an average of 405 parts per million in 2017.
By contrast, the US Department of Justice argues that “there is no right to ‘a climate system capable of sustaining human life’” — as the Juliana plaintiffs assert.
Bear forever in mind that this is a conservative government, a Republican government, arguing that no one has the right to a livable planet.
achilles is so often called gay by the community and straight by society even though he fell in love with men and women. freddie mercury is known as the most famous gay man even though he self identified as bisexual. channing tatum is constantly called straight even though he’s dated men and women. evan rachel wood and angelina jolie and drew barrymore–all self identified bi women constantly called straight.
sappho wrote love poems for both men and women and yalls response to the idea that she might have been bi is “there was no concept of bi/gay back then!! let’s focus on the fact that she was sapphic!!” to the point where her name has become synonymous with gay and she’s called a lesbian icon and y'all only seem to have issues with “concepts” and labels when the concept/label is BI. why am i not surprised?
bisexuality is valid pass it on
Sappho loved both men and women. She died for a guy she loved. Idk why people don’t acknowledge that part of her.
Freddy mercury loved both men and women and identified as bi too while we’re at it
Not to homestuck on main but aradia shouldve been with jade at the end of the comic
I refuse to believe aradia (who had full capabilities of traveling inside and outside of the dreambubbles) wouldn’t use her powers to check up on jade once in a while when she was literally all alone on that ship traveling through space for three years. Aradia has a lot of experience with loneliness and feeling like you’re the only person watching out for yourself and based on their first meeting she obviously had a lot of faith in jade and what she was going to be able to do wrt ending the game. Also lbr the fact that both of them left the comic without girlfriends is Unbelievable
