US Court Rules There Is A Human Right To A ‘Life-Sustaining’ Climate

By: Daily Caller, Katelynn Richardson on March 17, 2023

The Hawaii Supreme Court ruled Monday that there is a right to a “life-sustaining climate system,” marking the first time a U.S. court has ruled that citizens have climate rights, according to Bloomberg Law.

The case was brought by Hu Honua Bioenergy against the Public Utilities Commission (PUC), which regulates all utility companies operating within the state, after the regulator denied the company’s plan to enter into a power purchasing agreement with Hawaii Electric Light Company (HELCO). The court upheld the regulator’s decision, finding that the PUC “understood its public interest-minded mission” and rightly considered the impact of the project on citizens’ “right to a clean and healthful environment,” according to the opinion of the court, written by Associate Justice Todd Eddins.

The case has been ongoing since 2017, when environmental advocacy group Life of the Land appealed the PUC’s initial approval of the project to the Hawaii Supreme Court, which the court then sent back to PUC, according to Pacific Business News. In 2022, PUC reversed its decision, prompting Hu Honua to file its own appeal to the court.

Hu Honua wants to produce energy by burning locally-grown eucalyptus trees, which HELCO would purchase to help power the Hawaii Island’s grid, according to court documents.

In a concurring opinion, Associate Justice Michael Wilson wrote that we are facing a “climate emergency” that means the “lives of our children and future generations are at stake.”

“Given the climate emergency, and the need to limit atmospheric CO2 concentrations to below 350 ppm in order to leave Hawai‘i’s future generations a habitable earth, approval of the amended PPA would violate the people of Hawai‘i’s right to a life-sustaining climate system,” Wilson wrote. “Because the PUC properly evaluated the Project’s emissions—and found them to be unacceptably high given the impending climate emergency—it complied with its duty to protect the right of Hawai‘i’s people to a life-sustaining climate system.”

The right to a life-sustaining climate, Wilson wrote, is “derived from substantive due process pursuant to Article I, section 5 and the public trust doctrine  enshrined in Article XI, section 1 of the Hawaiʻi Constitution.”

Maria Antonia Tigre, Sabin Center global climate litigation fellow, told Bloomberg Law the case could impact other decisions

The only hot air that is out there, is coming from the corrupt politicians, who are pushing this Hoax to further control the people of the world. They will keep on with their attacks, and make up issues to push their agenda, until they are stopped in their tracks

The Climate Cult is the greatest enemy
It is the climate cult that funded Putin’s war
It is the climate cult that is causing inflation
The Climate Cult wants to end your freedoms
The Climate Cult wants to take your food, car, stove, travel rights, and human rights
The Climate Cult wants to destroy the middle class and the Western living standards
The Climate Cult uses tactics borrowed from the Nazis, the Communists, and the Jihadis
It is an ideology fused with religion (like Islam) and an ideology promoting mass-scale genocide (like the Nazis) and total destruction of lives and individualism (like Communism)

Always remember, the Globalists who push this scam don’t believe a word of it. For at least two decades they have used historys biggest psy-op to whip gullible Leftists into a religious-like fervor to “save the planet” by destroying Humanity. The Globalists continuing use of the Dominion voting machines (and other cheating methods) have made elections pointless. Schwab, Soros, Bathhouse Barry, the Clintons, Bushes, Rockefellers and all the other Globalist billionaires who see themselves as Gods must be destroyed! Schwab has come right out and said he plans to murder 90% of Humanity. You can die fighting or on your knees in the camps. The choice is yours.

Well what did you expect from a solid Democrat State that elects nutcases like Mazie Hirono? I would love to see where this judge found this “right” in the Constitution. Smacks of pulling it out of thin air just like Roe v. Wade…..judicial activism is what it boils down to.

Who actually profits from this false “climate change??”
After they’ve taken so much profit from the killer vaccines, and so will keep needing new sources of their incredibly high incomes?
INVESTORS!!!!
If you believe that you can affect the climate of this one planet in the Universe if you put an extra log on the fire, you are a big part of the stupid problem.
Uh-oh! I bet the climate crazies will start claiming that if you don’t stop eating beef, you’re going to affect the climate on Mars and on the outer galaxies!
Don’t be stupid! The Democrats are depending on our stupidity to make themselves richer than GOD.

So what does the judge use as a definition of a life sustaining climate? Does he have any idea how one might be sustained; or is this just another “do something that seems to help” approach to life?

The Judge will recommend a SOLUTION of KILLING 1/3 OF THE POPULATION OF THE WORLD because of their evil breathing. IN OTHER WORDS, kill 1/3 to save the 2/3. AND, THEY THINK THAT IS HUMAN RIGHTS…..only for THEM, the ELITE OF COURSE.

THERE’S THAT ‘DELUSION’ AGAIN COMING FROM DELUSIONAL PEOPLE:
2 Thessalonians 2:10-12
10 and with every wicked deception directed against those who are perishing, because they refused the love of the truth that would have saved them.
11 For this reason God will send them a powerful delusion so that they believe the lie,
12 in order that judgment may come upon all who have disbelieved the truth and delighted in wickedness.…

Explain California getting all that snow?
Explain the changing climates for centuries?
Explain why the same people claiming GLOBAL WARMING, touted a new ice age back in the 70s?

IT IS CALLED ‘DELUSION’ and when you deny TRUTH CONSTANTLY, G-D sends you delusions that make only sense to YOU, but is, in fact, ONE BIG LIE.

WE NEED TO REOPEN INSANE ASYLUMS AND PUT THESE DELUSIONAL PEOPLE IN THEM BEFORE THEY ACTUALLY PERPETUATE THEIR LIES.

CO2 is plant food – reduce plant food, reduce plants – reduce plants, reduce OXYGEN.

Currently, atmospheric CO2 is about 400ppm ( 0.04% ).
When I was in grade school, more than 60 years ago, CO2 was about 380ppm.

Plants produce the greatest biomass when atmospheric CO2 levels are between 800 and 1500ppm,
Plants begin DYING when CO2 levels drop to 200ppm

Throughout ALL OF GEOLOGIC HISTORY, we are at the very, very, low end of atmospheric CO2 levels.

Climate Whiners are trying to KILL US ALL — have you considered returning the favour?
