This is exciting news. Particularly after the federal government stepped into Californians politics (on the side of the big automakers) and prevented Californians from implementing any environmental laws with teeth.
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - California sued six of the world's largest automakers over global warming on Wednesday, charging that greenhouse gases from their vehicles have caused billions of dollars in damages. The lawsuit is the first of its kind to seek to hold manufacturers liable for the damages caused by their vehicles' emissions, state Attorney General Bill Lockyer said.
It comes less than a month after California lawmakers adopted the nation's first global warming law mandating a cut in greenhouse gas emissions.
Can you hear the the Mamas and the Papas singing "California Dreaming" in the background?
