This is potentially very important. There are some obvious follow-ups that could tighten the argument but the basic conclusion that emitters of CO2 (direct or indirect, scope 1 or scope 3) can be linked (proportionately) to damages seems clear.
Can scientists trace climate losses back to the emissions from individual fossil fuel companies?
Yes, we can.
