The Importance Of Being Factual: The U.S., China, And The Future Of The Kyoto Protocol, Aarthi S. Anand Oct 2013

The Importance Of Being Factual: The U.S., China, And The Future Of The Kyoto Protocol, Aarthi S. Anand

Duke Environmental Law & Policy Forum

By most accounts, the December 2012 Doha Round negotiations achieved little. The continued failure of member governments to reach consensus increases the risk of a catastrophic rise in global emissions. The current impasse is due in no small measure to the expressed concern of the United States that a climate change treaty will end up transferring enormous wealth from the United States to China.

American Natures: The Shape Of Conflict In Environmental Law, Jedediah Purdy Jan 2012

This Article sets out a framework for understanding and engaging the clash of values in environmental law and, by extension,approaching the field more generally. Americans have held, and legislated based upon, four distinct ideas about why the natural world matters and …
