The Montana climate case includes a key finding.
“Every additional ton of GHG emissions exacerbates Plaintiffs’ injuries & risks locking in irreversible climate injuries.” These injuries “will grow increasingly severe & irreversible without science-based actions to address climate change."
This eviscerates the argument by any state, country, or corporation that their small share of emissions doesn't matter or need to be cut.
EVERY bit of GHG emissions matters.
