The defendants should stop refining and distribution of gasoline and heating oil to the plaintiffs.
Problem solved.

One could make the argument that frivolous lawsuits are a public nuisance.

This is hilarious! Why not sue humanity for breathing out “dangerous greenhouse gases?” Unfortunately, some will take this crap seriously.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Well - they are certainly public nuisances when they open their mouths - and they emit greenhouse gases while they’re at it....

Apply the same “public nuisance” argument to immigration policies. What is the carbon footprint of a person moving from 3rd-World to 1st-World?

Mr. Alinsky, get back in your grave.

Whos that guy? Wheres Goebbels? Hint: They just called him Saul, he came from Chicago, and Hillary wrote her college thesis about him.
To: Bernard Marx
Ah, thanks. What was his name? Goebbelinsky?

Suing under state-law theories of public nuisance. San Francisco and several other California cities and counties have sued five major oil companies including Chevron, ExxonMobil and Shell, claiming they knowingly sell products that, when burned, emit greenhouse gases. Did the lawyers show up to court in gasoline or electric (coal) powered vehicles?

Attorneys operate under the lowest bar of ethical behavior of any of the ‘credentialed’ professions, e.g. such a hypothetical standard is virtually non-existant.

Yes, if they did arrive in a petroleum powered vehicle turn right around and hand them a lawsuit. After all wouldn’t a Environmental Lawyer know the risks more than anyone else.
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Really all the idiots have to do is provide proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that their fictitious claims are in fact real.
Only problem they have in that is they can’t.

Possession of carbon-based motor fuel in a motor vehicle by a member of the bar could be made a federal felony.
“Yes, we can.”
