Comrades of Logisaur, small crack has developed in absurdity of conditions on Blue Planet. This crack – caused by Held v Montana – is in the realm of consideration of solutions to severe planet wide deterioration of atmospheric conditions throughout Blue Planet. Severe atmospheric deterioration is commonly referred to euphemistically as “climate change.” As noted in RFBP III and XIII, said atmospheric deterioration could lead to end of all life on Blue Planet so, kinda important. As also noted there is an absurd lack of recognition of this importance, so crack in this absurdity is beneficial. However, must be emphasized that crack in absurdity and stupidity is very small at this time and therefore possibility of any intelligent, reasonable solutions fitting through crack do not appear imminent.
The crack developed as result of human youths accessing legal system in region United Stasis. United Stasis legal system is fraught with much absurdity itself, some previously noted such as two-tiered different treatment of those without many dollars, without white skin, and female units, but that is a whole other phenomenon. In this case, Held v Montana, human youths challenged policies leading to climate change. Human youth were aided by Our Children’s Trust and the Western Environmental Law Center. Both are organizations that provide access to legal system to human youths to combat climate change without requiring a high quantity of the dollars. Sabin Center for Climate Change is another organization allocating resources to the maybe-we-shouldn’t-destroy-the-planet effort.
To break down the case of Held v Montana to its most basic aspects: the human youths and their attorneys argued that energy policy decisions in Montana should consider climate destroying effects in order to avoid destroying the planet and all life therein, not to mention that doing so was required by Montana’s own rules, or constitution. This was completely obvious to anyone who had a brain and paid attention, but as mission may have mentioned previously, there is a lot of absurd crazy shit here on Blue Planet, and ignoring the obvious is frequently part of that. In response the state and the dollar worshippers argued that they don’t want to do that, and they want to make dollars, and we changed the rules, and we changed the rules again, and uh…er….oh look, a squirrel! Judge Seeley ruled that the youths were correct, that the dollar worshippers’ arguments were silly, and that the energy policy deciders must start behaving themselves.
There is some indication that this crack in the absurdity of ignoring climate change may widen. Our Children’s Trust is providing young humans in other regions access to the legal system for same purpose. These collective efforts have potential to increase attention, effort, and resources to problem of climate change and could increase likelihood of Blue Planet survival.
As Held stated, “It’s terrifying, but all we can do is take steps forward that are within our control, as individuals or state governments, or on a national or global scale. Wherever you’re at in life, whatever generation you’re from, if you’re a writer or rancher, scientist, attorney, artist – we can all make a difference in our own ways.”
