City of Chicago Now Suing Oil Companies Over ‘Climate Change’​

The city of Chicago is now suing oil companies over climate change.

A cynical person might see this as nothing more than a cash-strapped city going after what it sees as a deep pocketed target in order to get large sums of money it needs in order to keep the city afloat.

Chicago’s financial problems were well known long before the city became a destination for illegal border crossers.
In the lawsuit, the city accused BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Exxon Mobil, Phillips 66, Shell, and the American Petroleum Institute (API) of misleading the public about the impact of their products and of contributing to the effects of climate change on Chicago.

These impacts include unsafe summer temperatures, an increase in extreme weather, shoreline erosion and susceptibility to disasters such as flash flooding in basements on the city’s West Side, according to the lawsuit. As a result, the city says, climate mitigation and response projects in low-income communities have cost it nearly $200 million.

Yep exactly. All I ever do lately is read and shake my head in disbelief. I just don’t understand any more

I am pretty sure the oil companies have far more money and lawyers on staff than Chicago. This will go exactly nowhere as it should.

I think something similar is happening in California and the companies are threatening to back out of California. If these companies were smart they would say you sue us we stop service to your city.
Im just curious when we can start to sue the government for all their mishaps and fraud. Trunk was sued for fraud yet Biden made numerous promises to get elected that surely amount to fraud yet he hasn’t been charged or sued yet.

Those named in the suit should immediately suspended delivery / sale / etc of their product to the City of Chicago. If there product is causing so much damage and slo much destruction.......stop sending it.

yep ..

they can deliver to here .. more supply = cheaper cost ..

 

[spat]

Oil companies should refuse to sell to anyone to delivers to Chicago.

It's a liability thing now.

 

[Grimscale]

Can't wait for discovery.
Let the city of Shitcago offer up all the evidence they have that oil companies are contributing to "climate change", and that their absence would have resulted in anything different.
This would be a wonderful opportunity to start debunking some of the .gov's made up bullshit.

Then the oil companies can turn around and sue Shitcago for slander.

Those named in the suit should immediately suspended delivery / sale / etc of their product to the City of Chicago. If there product is causing so much damage and slo much destruction.......stop sending it.

This would be epic.
But have the surrounding States also create laws that people from Illinois are not allowed to travel into their States to purchase oil-based products.

After all, if it is really that bad, they wouldn't want to get it from somewhere else, right?

Better call Saul... or Jackie!!!
I think we have a case here!

 

[Saltwater60]

They will have evidence from reputable scientists but we all know how correct that data has been. Cough, cough, Covid?
