Staying on top of the legal and policy developments in the climate change arena is no small task. As a special service to our members, the Environmental Law Institute provides a series of monthly webinars with national experts on climate law and policy to keep you up to date and to answer your questions. Though they were previously conference calls, our Monthly Climate Change Briefings will now take place on Zoom.
Topics to be addressed in this month's briefing:
- Business activities leveraging the incentive in the Inflation Reduction Act to advance climate related work
- Key developments in US and global climate litigation in February
- State of Washington's first “Cap and Invest” program auction
- New York’s Gov. Hochul's proposal for a similar “Cap and Invest” program
- Alaska’s proposed legislation aimed at using the state’s natural resources to generate revenue from carbon storage and offset-credit programs
- New Jersey’s executive order moving up the state’s deadline for producing 100% clean energy from 2050 to 2035
- Roundup of effects of the recent California storms
