If I was still in the NYC area ...

Cooperation After Copenhagen: Climate Change & World (Dis)Order

Tuesday March 2nd, 4:15pm

Room 129, Yale Law School's Sterling law building, 127 Wall St, New Haven, CT



A panel discussion with:

Moderator: Doug Kysar, Yale Law School

Panelists:
* Ambassador Phillip Muller and Caleb Christopher, UN Mission of the Marshall Islands
* David Doniger, Natural Resources Defense Council
* Dan Esty, Yale Law School
* Steven Ferrey, Suffolk University

International climate change negotiations are in disarray. Criticism against the scientific practices of the IPCC has mounted, the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen this past December became a "snarling, aggravated, chaotic event" (in the words of U.S. lead negotiator Todd Stern), and recently the head of the UNFCCC announced that he will step down in a move widely perceived to reflect the insider's dim outlook for upcoming negotiation meetings. Against this tumultuous backdrop, speakers from a variety of perspectives and areas of expertise will discuss the present state and likely future of international climate change regulation.

This lecture is free and open to the public.

This lecture is sponsored by the Yale Center for Environmental Law & Policy and the Yale Environmental Law Association.
