In the end, the promise of attribution science is that it helps us see a storm or a heat wave or a flood not as an act of a god or the whim of Mother Nature, but as a disaster that has been knowingly shaped or intensified by particular human actions. And by identifying perpetrators and victims, it transforms the question of who should pay for climate damages into a moral question as much as a legal one.
This is a science that not only articulates new ideas about accountability but practically demands that we explore them. It is only a matter of time before the courts catch up. *https://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/06/opinion/oil-companies-supreme-court.html <https://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/06/opinion/oil-companies-supreme-court.html>* -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
