The bill establishes a limitation on civil and criminal liability for any alleged actual or potential effects on climate resulting from greenhouse gas emissions. It defines key terms such as "agricultural commodity," "agricultural source," "greenhouse gas," and "renewable fuel source." The legislation specifies that in any civil or criminal action, a defendant cannot be held liable for damages or injuries related to greenhouse gas emissions unless the plaintiff can provide clear and convincing evidence of a violation of enforceable statutory limitations or permit terms.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that its provisions do not create a right to initiate civil or criminal actions based on the potential climate effects of greenhouse gas emissions. The court must find that the defendant has violated specific statutory or permit requirements for liability to be established. Overall, the bill aims to protect defendants from liability related to greenhouse gas emissions unless strict criteria are met.
