Nathan Baring, one of 21 youth plaintiffs suing the U.S. government over
climate change, will be speaking at Missoula's Roxy theater on Feb. 1,
2018. The historic case in which he is a plaintiff, *Juliana v. U.S.,* has
been *moving through the federal court system and is expected to go to
trial later this year.* Originally filed against the Obama Administration,
the Trump Administration is the current defendant.

The plaintiffs allege that the actions of the U.S. government in causing
the dire climate crisis are violating their rights to life, liberty and
property under the U.S. Constitution. *Current climate science,
particularly that of Dr. James Hansen, formerly of NASA, is central to the
case.*  Don't miss this rare opportunity to hear scientifically and morally
grounded climate truths through the voice of a young American engaged in
what has been described as "the trial of the millennium." *A march and
rally across the Higgins Street bridge will immediately follow the youth
panel.* *(Signs will be provided, but even better, make your own!)*
