Abstract
Let be a connected, closed, orientable, irreducible -manifold. We show that: if admits a co-orientable taut foliation with orderable cataclysm, then is left orderable. This provides an elementary proof that is left orderable if admits an Anosov flow with a co-orientable stable foliation without using Thurston's universal circle action. Furthermore, for every closed orientable 3-manifold that admits a pseudo-Anosov flow with a co-orientable stable foliation, our result applies to infinitely many of Dehn fillings along the union of singular orbits of .
