University Professor To Force Energy Legistlation Through The Courts

Mary Wood is a law professor at the University of Oregon and she is planning to use the courts to force the government into acting on global warming.

From the democratherald.com: "Drawing on her background in both natural resources and property law, Wood has developed a theory that claims the atmosphere is an asset that belongs to all but is held in trust by the government. The government has a legal obligation to protect that trust from harm"

Now I am by no means a law professor or law expert but don't you think that protecting the atmosphere is something that needs to be done by congress, not some judge? These planned lawsuits are just another way for liberal environmentalist crazies to legistlate through the courts & probably win victories along the way because of liberal judges legistlating from the bench.

And what proof do they have that possible global warming 'catastrophe' is caused by humans? Wood states 'At first it sounds radical, and I acknowledge that. But what’s really radical is trying to survive in a world of runaway heating'. What runaway heating, professor Woods? There is no runaway heating or any heating at all. Perhaps you should read this article.

Having courts regulate energy is just plain crazy....
