[MCN] Ask the Plaintiffs: Youth climate lawsuit Q&A

[Sarah Lundquist]

Hello Missoulians!

On Wednesday, June 21 from 7-8pm, plaintiffs and an attorney from the
historic Held v. State of Montana <https://www.youthvgov.org/held-v-montana>
youth-led climate lawsuit will join a live Zoom call to answer questions
and share their experiences with peers and supporters across the state. All
are welcome to attend and submit questions for plaintiffs, and we warmly
invite fellow young people who want to learn more about what it’s like to
be a youth plaintiff and how to get involved in climate action as a young
person. This is a great opportunity to hear directly from plaintiffs about
what it’s like to participate in the FIRST youth-led and the FIRST
constitutional climate lawsuit to go to trial in the nation!

ABOUT HELD V STATE OF MONTANA:
Held v. State of Montana <https://www.youthvgov.org/held-v-montana> is a
constitutional climate lawsuit brought by 16 Montana youth against their
State to protect their equal rights to a healthy environment, life,
dignity, and freedom. They are suing because their government is continuing
to promote and support fossil fuel extraction and burning, which is
worsening the climate crisis and harming these youths’ lives. This is the
FIRST-EVER constitutional climate trial in the U.S.--led by Montana youth!
