SACRAMENTO, CA - On the heals of its recent lawsuit against auto manufacturers, the People's Republic of California has filed a lawsuit against every resident of the state, claiming the greenhouse gases emitted by people during natural biological processes have cost the state millions of dollars.
State Attorney General Bill Lockyer said the lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Northern California was the first of its kind to seek to hold people liable for the damages caused by their emissions.
According to Lockyer, the state is also considering suing any airline or airplane manufacturer which flies through California airspace; all electric utility companies that operate within the state; Chevron, Unocal, and Conoco-Philips oil refining companies; the California Association of Dairy Farmers; and termites.
