   Back to the middle ages courtesy of the ignorant savages!   
      
   (Encore episode.) In January, the Supreme Court heard arguments   
   in a case brought by the city of Baltimore against more than a   
   dozen major oil and gas companies including BP, ExxonMobil and   
   Shell. The city government argued that the fossil fuel giants   
   must pay for the costs of climate change because they knew that   
   their products cause potentially catastrophic global warming.   
      
   As NPR climate reporter Rebecca Hersher explains that the   
   Baltimore case is one of more than 20 similar suits brought by   
   cities, states and counties in recent years. The cases make a   
   variety of arguments about why fossil fuel companies bear   
   responsibility for the costs of climate change, including that   
   companies misled the public about the threat burning oil and gas   
   poses to the climate.   
      
   If the Supreme Court decides in Baltimore's favor, it would   
   likely pave the way for cases against oil and gas companies to   
   proceed in state courts across the country.
