Hello Friends!
Just in case you missed our announcement last week: we’ve filed a new youth-led constitutional climate lawsuit in Utah! In Natalie R. v. State of Utah, the seven youth plaintiffs we represent, alongside attorneys at Salt Lake City-based firm Deiss Law PC, assert that the State of Utah is actively causing and contributing to the climate crisis and Utah’s dangerous air quality by maximizing, promoting, and systematically authorizing the development of fossil fuels. The result of these affirmative government actions is hazardous air quality and other dangerous impacts of the climate crisis that directly harm the young plaintiffs and violate their state constitutional rights to life, health, and safety.
We’re writing again today to remind you of an event we’re hosting online this Wednesday to meet some of the youth plaintiffs and learn more about their constitutional case. Please join us this Wednesday, March 23rd at 4:00pm PDT / 5:00pm MDT / 6:00pm CDT / 7:00pm EDT to celebrate these brave young Utahns and discover what you can do to support their quest for climate justice!
