Climate Law and Policy Lab

2 credits · Law School

This class will examine best practices on a variety of issues that have the potential to mitigate and adapt to climate change. The professor will determine the issues to be researched in coordination with the EELU faculty and input from local governmental officials, non-governmental organizations, and private sector entities. Students will research best practices on these issues and then draft public governance instruments such as policies, ordinances, regulations or legislation, and private governance instruments such as model supply chain contract provisions, model certification and standards documents, and model environmental, social and governance (ESG) policies. Students will present their work to relevant local governmental, civic, and private sector entities. Limited enrollment. [2]
