truly it's absurd how much time the oil companies' lawyer and DOJ spent being like 'this one municipality wants to regulate GLOBAL greenhouse gas emissions' when Boulder was repeatedly and explicitly like, we just want you to help pay for what you did to us tbh ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/sunco...

screenshotted excerpt from the linked article reading as follows:

Back in 2018, Boulder County filed a lawsuit in a Colorado state court against fossil fuel industry giants Suncor Energy and Exxon, alleging that the companies caused extensive—and expensive—alterations to Boulder’s climate. Boulder alleged that the companies knew that their unchecked production and promotion of fossil fuels would “result in dangerous changes in the climate,” but continued such activities anyway, and engaged in a decades-long campaign of “concealing” those dangers and “misrepresenting” them to the public.

As a result, the complaint says, instead of snow in the winter, Boulder gets more “high-intensity, short-duration rainfall events” that overwhelm its drainage systems and cause flooding. Instead of rain in the spring, Boulder gets more droughts that “have substantial implications for agriculture, wildfires and water availability.” And instead of warm days in the summer, Boulder gets more heat waves that lead to “premature deaths” and “adverse economic impacts,” particularly on outdoor labor sectors like agriculture and construction.

Boulder has already spent over $100 million repairing damage related to climate change, and expects to spend over $100 million more in order to adapt its infrastructure over the next 25 years, as it attempts to mitigate the effects of flooding, droughts, wildfires, and other harms. “Taxpayers cannot pay the full costs,” says the state’s complaint, “nor should they.”
