The real crime here is the corruption of our political system by wealthy corporations. They know the truth but deploy vast resources to spread doubt and uncertainty. Go read Merchants of Doubt about how the same scientists who spread doubt about the links of cancer to smoking have been deployed in the global warming debate.

This is fraud and corruption and is a crime. No need to invent a new system of justice.
