What to watch in the Supreme Court's big climate case

The Supreme Court is set to tackle a pivotal case that could redefine the landscape for state-court lawsuits targeting oil companies for climate damages. With billions of dollars potentially on the line, the outcome will have profound implications for the oil industry and the numerous state and local governments that have filed these lawsuits due to escalating climate change costs. This case could determine whether federal law preempts such state-level claims, significantly influencing future litigation strategies and the accountability of major corporations for environmental impacts.
