First Annual Emerging Issues
in Environmental Law Policy and Practice Symposium

The Collision of Energy Development and Environmental Laws

October 3, 2013, 8:00am - 4:30pm  •  EDU 1111
  Co-Sponsored with Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLP

WindmillsRapidly changing around the world, energy development poses new economic and environmental challenges on a daily basis. Many companies are making long-term investment and supply chain decisions based upon climate change models.  “Zero” emission vehicles have changed the point of emissions from the tailpipe to the power plant, but those emissions are only as “clean” as the source that generates the power.  Laws and regulations are adapting to the changing world of energy development, and this year’s symposium discusses the law, politics, and policies influencing these changes. CLE credit is available for participants (6.5 credits).
