![We agree with Andy Shepard, Founder of the Maine Winter Sports Center whose quote on this graphic of a flooded street along the ocean reads "In keeping with Maine values, they {large fossil fuel companies] should be held responsible for cleaning up the mess they've made, and passing LD 1870 to establish a Climate Superfund in Maine would be a step toward making that happen." Quoted from Andy's letter to the editor in Bangor Daily News

It's only right that the world's largest fossil fuel companies who made this mess are the ones responsible for cleaning it up. LD 1870 would take the first step by formally assessing the damages extreme weather has done to Maine.
We've held corporations responsible before ⚖, with the with existing superfund laws and with the tobacco and opioid companies. We can do it again now.
