Implementing Climate Change Policy: Looking Forward to the Hard Part

Implementing the new regulatory scheme will be a massive and difficult undertaking. Billions of dollars will hinge on each of numerous implementation decisions. This one- and one-half day conference will bring together leading government officials, academics, NGOs and private practitioners to explore these issues:

• The dozens of rulemakings required of EPA, DOE, and other agencies
• Creating the machinery for markets and offsets
• Managing the transition for key sectors (fossil and renewable energy, agriculture, forestry)
• Linkages to the international climate and trade systems
• State and local roles
• Affecting individual and corporate behavior
• Equity and environmental justice issues

Conference co-chairs:
Prof. Jonathan Z. Cannon, University of Virginia Law School
Prof. Michael B. Gerrard, Columbia Law School
Prof. Michael P. Vandenbergh, Vanderbilt Law School

Co-sponsored by the Environmental Law Institute.
