Margaret BerryGUEST
We had two children aged eight and ten at the time, so perfect age for a family camp for Campers Week.

Margaret BerryGUEST
And at Campers Week, I came in contact with other teachers of children and we, in addition to learning the community dances and all the workshops I was learning from at camp, I also made connections with colleagues.

How does Ellison's case compare to what other states and maybe other countries even are doing?

Margaret BarryGUEST
As James mentioned, Minnesota's case is based on allegations that the company's conduct was deceptive and that that deception led to a buildup of greenhouse gas emissions that's leading to these climate change harms.

Margaret BarryGUEST
There are a number of other, as about three dozen or more cases brought by state and local and tribal governments across the United States that make similar claims of deception.

Margaret BarryGUEST
And as James mentioned, there are also some of those states and local governments are also focused on the actual emissions caused by production or their claims are also based on the company's historical emissions and ongoing emissions of greenhouse gases.

Margaret BarryGUEST
The cases in the United States are there are a lot of different types of cases and a lot of them relate to state and federal and local governments obligations to do something about climate change.

Margaret BarryGUEST
And I think that because of the nature of some of our federal laws that have been used to take action under climate change, we have a lot of cases where plaintiffs are asking the federal government to take climate change into account when it takes actions or issues regulations.
