A climate change lawsuit. This is the kind of legal proceeding that asserts its relevance.
In the case of the recent lawsuit won by 16 youths all between the ages of 5 and 22 in Montana (defendant), the issue detailed the cost of neglecting to consider climate change in fossil fuel projects. As a result, the state not only received a lawsuit but contributed to revealing yet another social issue to another group— the younger generation.
Proceedings like this come about from the negligence of those who choose not to comply with constitutional grounds. For instance, in a worry that a project won’t land if a corporation is incompliant with even one law, they may attempt to avoid the potential disapproval initially through unconstitutional means. Some of these reasons for avoidance of compliance may be that, doing so, may delay the project’s progress and the stakeholder’s profit gains. It may even be inconvenient to change the habits that they’ve practiced for so long.
However, the attempt to avoid may come at a cost in the form of a lawsuit.
