Gosh, I must have missed the section in the Constitution that guarantees teenagers the right to have low levels of carbon emissions in the atmosphere.
Judge Aiken was appointed by Bill Clinton. And if Hillary had won, we would have been subjected to much more of this judicial idiocy.
Yes, we really dodged a bullet last week.

A liberal federal district judge held on Nov. 10 that teenagers have a fundamental right to a “stable environment” and can sue for a court order to change the level of carbon emissions that humans emit into the atmosphere.
Seeking a federal court “to declare the United States’ current environmental policy infringes their fundamental rights” to a natural environment that is not impacted by manmade global warming, 21 young people (ages 9 through 20) filed suit against Barack Obama, various federal agencies, and the fossil fuel industry itself.
“Federal courts too often have been cautious and overly deferential in the arena of environmental law, and the world has suffered for it,” U.S. District Judge Ann Aiken of the District of Oregon wrote in the case Juliana v. United States.
Appointed by Bill Clinton, Aiken rejected the industry’s argument that she should dismiss the case because—among other reasons—even if everyone agreed that the earth is warming and that humans are responsible, a court is still not equipped to determine what to do about it. Brushing aside those objections, the judge said that all she needed to do was “determine what emissions level would be sufficient to” end global warming, and then order everyone is this country to change their fossil fuel consumption accordingly….
Same argument as; Determine what tax rate will (‘fully’ fund schools, balance the budget, etc.) and then Order it. Guessing her middle name is not Solomon.
Children are abused by 400 PPM of CO2, but it’s bigoted to suggest they need a mother and father. Oooookay.
Golly, that judge is the ugliest dude I’ve ever seen.
We could stop all of this CO2 caused warming if libs stopped exhaling.
