About this listen

Is the courtroom the right battleground for climate change debates, or are we misusing our legal system for political gain? Join us as we host Phil Goldberg, and explore the controversial realm of climate change litigation. Goldberg pulls back the curtain on how these lawsuits often go beyond environmental concerns, serving as political tools or revenue generators. We dissect the limitations of using the judicial system to address climate issues and question if bypassing legislative and regulatory processes could have unforeseen global energy implications.

We further explore the complexities of manufacturers' liability in the evolving climate litigation landscape. Goldberg sheds light on unusual legal trends, including lawsuits against car manufacturers over viral video-fueled thefts, which challenge traditional legal concepts like causation and foreseeability. From cases in Boulder, Colorado, to Charleston, South Carolina, the conversation underscores the urgent need for the U.S. Supreme Court to establish clear legal guidelines. We discuss how these multifaceted legal battles could reshape not just the legal industry, but also influence energy security and economic considerations.
