The climate litigation game is simple: attribute any and all damage even remotely plausible to “climate change” and then sue the fossil energy producers for purportedly causing that damage while misleading the public about those asserted impacts despite knowing about them for decades. The claims seem straightforward, and the potential uses for the many, many billions of dollars to be extracted are endless.

After all, such costs are not part of business income — except to the extent that the payments for them are income for the underlying workers and suppliers, who pay the requisite taxes. Taxing the business income of any company without excluding such costs would be blatant double taxation.

Editors are a central scourge of mankind, imposing length limits guaranteed to hollow out a finely-crafted argument. And the renowned editors of RealClear Energy? A fortiori: they are merciless. I kid, of course.
