Taking Climate Killers to Court - Lois Parshley

In this episode of Capital Crimes, we sit down with award-winning journalist Lois Parshley to discuss her powerful article "Taking Climate Killers to Court," published by The Lever. Lois takes us deep into the world of climate litigation, where innovative legal strategies are being employed to hold fossil fuel companies accountable for their role in climate change.

We explore how attribution science is revolutionizing these legal battles by establishing clear links between corporate emissions and specific climate events. Lois also shares insights into the legal discovery process, which often reveals that these companies knew the potential catastrophic outcomes of their actions decades ago—yet chose to continue their harmful practices.
