Tossed out like the pig shit it is
This is the best part:
"We understand why a district federal judge may not want to jump into a global warming thicket with both feet," Ken Alex, California's supervising deputy attorney general, said in an interview. "Having said that, the basic tenet of law is that where you describe a harm then there needs to be a remedy for it."
"Right now because the political branches -- the federal government, Congress and the executive branch -- have not acted, the state of California is left without a remedy."
I've a remedy for you - it's called stop driving. Carpooling? Mass Transit? I don't know much about the law, but it should cost the asshat who brought the lawsuit some serious cash in court fees.
There is always an idiot out there somewhere.
