Montana officials are seeking to downplay a first-of-its-kind trial over a state’s obligations to protect residents from climate change
a state law that prevents agencies from considering greenhouse gases impacts when they issue permits for fossil fuel development.

But the state's lead environmental regulator said Monday that permitting practices would not change if the young environmentalists win their case. Only regulatory acts can used as the basis for permit rejections, and those don't allow permits to be denied in Montana based on climate impacts, said DEQ Air, Energy and Mining Division Administrator Sonja Nowakowski.
As her respiratory reactions grew worse during smoke events that have shrouded Missoula, Vesovich said her mother in recent years started taking them on trips during fires in search of cleaner air — to Washington state, Idaho and elsewhere in Montana.
