In 2007 the Court, with full global warming religious fervor, held:
The harms associated with
climate change are serious and well
recognized. The Government’s own objective assessment of the relevant
science and a strong consensus among qualified experts indicate that
global warming threatens, inter alia, a precipitate rise in sea levels,
severe and irreversible changes to natural ecosystems, a significant
reduction in winter snowpack with direct and important economic
consequences, and increases in the spread of disease and the ferocity
of weather events.
Now the Court has radically changed direction:
… The Court, we caution,
endorses no particular view of the
complicated issues related to carbon dioxide emissions and climate
change.
I’ll take that as a huge win for science, common sense and society
generally, including its essential support structure of industry and
abundant, affordable energy supply.
I just wonder why the media aren’t reporting SCOTUS’s apparent
conversion from global warming religion to, at most, global warming
agnosticism. [Junk
