"In 2015, a group of 21 young people came together to sue the federal government for violating their constitutional rights by promoting the climate catastrophe that has already begun to deprive them of life, liberty and property without due process of law. The path breaking litigation, Juliana v United States, has had more success in the courts than many expected, but the federal government has repeatedly delayed the case from getting to trial. The case is now pending before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Whatever its judicial outcome, the litigation has received a great deal of media attention and public acclaim. Youth activists now central to climate advocacy say that they were influenced by this early example of young people stepping up. Our Children's Trust (OCT), the group that has brought the children's climate lawsuit, has now authorized the author, Gus Speth, to proceed with publication of an updated, 2020 version of the Expert Report he prepared for the litigation in 2018. The original Speth report was prepared in his capacity as an expert in the subject. In the view of many who have seen it, the report is the most compelling indictment of federal climate action and inaction yet written"--… (altro)

Since 2018, we have been blessed to work with Gus Speth, who did a remarkable job in developing his expert report for our constitutional climate lawsuit, Juliana v. United States . As you will see, Juliana "is no ordinary lawsuit." This introduction describes the story behind Juliana and explains the invaluable historical importance of this book to the overall strategy of litigation. We also portray of Juliana came to be filed. -Introduction, Julie Olson and Philip Gregory
I have been retained pro bono to provide expert testimony regarding the historical knowledge of the US federal government (including defendants) of climate change, climate science, and alternative pathways to power the nation's energy system other than fossil fuels. I will also testify about the decisions made by the US federal government to devise and pursue energy policies and, in particular, to maintain a fossil fuel based energy system. -The Speth Expert Report for Juliana v. United States
The 1930s through the early 1950s were a period growing concern for scientists studying climate change. This period provides a prelude to the flowering forth of the climate change issue during the Carter administration. -Chapter 1, Climate Science Knowledge the Carter Adminstration Inherited
