The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to hear a lawsuit from Republican-led states challenging the Biden administration’s attempt to assign a social cost to carbon—a foundational element to all life.

No explanation was given and the Court merely listed Missouri v. Biden on Tuesday as one of the petitions for writ of certiorari that were denied. The Supreme Court similarly refused earlier this year to hear another challenge to the estimates.
