Young plaintiffs in a climate lawsuit challenging Montana's government for not doing enough to combat climate change are seen outside the Lewis and Clark County Courthouse, June 12, 2023, in Helena, Mont. The youth, who won their lawsuit saying the state was not doing enough to prevent climate change, are supporting environmental groups in their effort to block a natural gas-fired power plant on the banks of the Yellowstone River in south-central Montana. The youth filed an amicus brief in the case before the Montana Supreme Court on Tuesday, Nov. 28. (Thom Bridge/Independent Record via AP, File)
