The law would raise $75 billion over 25 years from major carbon
polluters,
requiring them to pay for climate damage caused by increasingly severe
weather.
New York became the second state to require fossil fuel companies to pay >>> for climate damage, joining a growing effort to hold major polluters
accountable for more frequent and costly extreme weather disasters.
The bill New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) signed into law on Thursday
would
allow the state to fine the biggest greenhouse gas emitters a total of
$75
billion, to be paid over 25 years into a fund based on their
contribution
to overall emissions between 2000 and 2018.
Ex post facto...
Utterly unconstitutional.
No, scooter, you stupid fuck. It's not a criminal law, scooter.
Doesn't matter.
This law
establishes *civil* liability, scooter
After the fact.
and is not an /ex post facto/ law.
Was it a law when the actions took place?
You don't know what the fuck you're blabbering about, scooter. You never
do.
Well, we all know you never do.
"An ex post facto law is a law that retroactively changes the legal consequences or status of actions that were committed, or relationships that existed, before the enactment of the law. "
