[GPSCC-chat] leverage against government stalling on Climate Change?

[Rob Means]

Earlier today, Gerry Gras posted an article with the title as the
subject:
Delaying decisive investment in clean energy will cost us more
financially and environmentally

The second paragraph stated:
For every $1 of investment in cleaner technology that is 
avoided in the power sector before 2020, an additional $4.30 would need 
to be spent after 2020 to compensate for the increased emissions.?

Given the fiduciary responsibilities of elected city councils and other
officials, would they not be subject to a lawsuit if they do not
promptly  start investing in clean technology?  I'm just asking.
