2015 youth climate activist case against federal government for environmental rights revival sought at Supreme Court.

Youth climate activists have petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to revive their case against the federal government, originally filed in 2015, claiming it violates their right to a clean environment. After a May dismissal by the 9th Circuit Court, the group, represented by Our Children's Trust, seeks a writ of mandamus to compel the lower court to hear their case. Nearly 350,000 people have urged the Biden administration to stop opposing the lawsuit.
