Here is something rarely seen.....and definitely not good news, speaking as a 25 year Sierra Club member.
A major national environmental organization, Sierra Club, just got hit with a $6.4 million award of attorney fees by a Texas Federal District Court Judge for waging frivolous air pollution litigation against a coal fired electric utility plant in Texas.
Ouch!!
