Swedish Supreme Court Rejects Greta Thunberg’s ‘Climate Inaction’ Lawsuit

Sweden’s Supreme Court ruled on Wednesday that Greta Thunberg and hundreds of other young activists can not sue the state in a Swedish court over what they say is insufficient action against ‘climate change’

Activists filed a class action lawsuit in 2022 with a district court claiming the state violates their rights as laid out in the European Convention on Human Rights by not doing enough to limit ‘climate change’ nor to mitigate its effects.

The district court in 2023 asked the Supreme Court to clarify whether a lawsuit of this kind could effectively be tried in a Swedish court after the state requested the case be dismissed.

“A court cannot decide that the Riksdag or the government must take any specific action. The political bodies decide independently on which specific climate measures Sweden should take,” the Supreme Court said in a statement on Wednesday.

The currently around 300 plaintiffs, which call themselves the Aurora group, wanted the district court to order Sweden to do more to ‘limit’ global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

    Good!

    If she knew as much about climate as she does about causing disruption to innocent people, and other pointless tactics, she might not waste this precious life she has. Just a bit of advice.

      Greta is just another player in the big show, another puppet of the ruling class

    They should all be sent back to school and made to learn some real science They are total time wasters and probably all on some form of social security payments at tax payers expense.

    It is just as well they decided that way, otherwise not only would democracy be dead, but governments and parliaments too. We would simply be governed on the whim of judges. Everyone alive (apart from Saint Greta Thunberg) can see that that is not a good idea.
