How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that declaratory relief was “unlikely by itself to remediate [the plaintiffs’] alleged injuries absent further court action”
  • noting that quantifying a specific policy’s impact on climate change is “delicate, complex, and involve[s] large elements of prophecy[,]” making it inappropriate for judicial determination
  • finding causation notwithstanding multiple non-hypothetical links in the chain because the “host of federal policies” that were challenged were likely a substantial factor in causing plaintiffs’ injuries
  • “To establish Article III redressability, the plaintiffs must show that the relief they seek is … within the district court’s power to award.”
  • “To establish 20 Article III redressability, the plaintiffs must show that the relief they seek is both 21 (1) substantially likely to redress their injuries; and (2) with in the district court’s 22 power to award.”
