Biggest Case On the Planet

Julia Olson is trying to help 21 kids sue President Obama for not creating any regulations on greenhouse emissions. She became interested in this case when she was pregnant with her son in 2006. She was watching a movie on climate change and was inspired to do something about it. Olson became worried about her son and the safety of the planet for her son and she felt that people of her generation are causing the problem. She claims that this law suit is to help the president and his administrations to feel the weight of responsibility of being a parent and the concern that she has. In a March hearing of this case the judge says, "'There is simply no constitutional right to a pollution-free environment'". Olson disagrees cause she believes that the kids are being violated of their constitutional right to "life, liberty, and property". This is where Olson or CNN is wrong when they wrote up this article. Every American has a constitutional right to life, liberty, and happiness, not property.
