Judge tosses out climate suit against big oil, but it's not the end for these kinds of cases

A federal judge just tossed out a lawsuit brought against the world’s largest oil companies for selling fuels they knew would boost sea levels and disrupt the global climate.

This decision, on its surface, is a victory for big oil. But the fight against these huge companies and their roles in stoking climate change is far from over.

The suit thrown out on Monday — which was filed by San Francisco and Oakland — won’t doom similar lawsuits by New York, Colorado and six others in California against big oil for the damages wrought by future floods, droughts, and wildfire.
