The 2009 Delta And Water Legislation - Legislative History, Assembly Committee On Water, Parks And Wildlife
The 2009 Delta And Water Legislation - Legislative History, Assembly Committee On Water, Parks And Wildlife
California Assembly
Since 2005, when Fish and Game reported to this Committee on the steep decline in both the Delta fishery and the food web on which it depends, we have been taking steps to consider how to respond to this Delta ecosystem crisis. We passed legislation on Delta funding, levees, and emergency preparation. Important to today's hearing, we passed a bill requiring the Administration to recommend a strategic, long-term vision for the Delta, by the beginning of this year.
The Administration created a Blue-Ribbon Task Force led by former Assemblyman Phil Isenberg and offered its recommendations, based largely on the Task …

Pursuing Environmental Justice: Obstacles And Opportunities - Lessons From The Field, Helen H. Kang

This article argues that the clinic‘s clients and similarly situated grassroots groups pursue litigation because the laws do not adequately protect them from pollution at the neighborhood level. Environmental lawsuits filed by such groups result from the conclusion that there is "too much" pollution in the neighborhood—there is elevated background pollution, violations of environmental laws contribute to excess pollution, and litigation is one of the few ways to redress the distributive injustice resulting from pollution created by multiple sources.

This article will initially describe CEQA, its exemptions, and the lack of notice requirements for exemption decisions.

Lastly, this article will propose guidelines for projects that should require additional notice, explain how to implement them, and outline the information the notice should contain.

Our Bandit Future - Cities, Shantytowns, And Climate Change Governance, Colin Crawford
Publications
This Article seeks, to begin to define a role for cities and their inhabitants in climate change governance. Part I argues that if we fail to take into account global urbanization and its defining characteristics, namely extreme squalor and associated social ills, as a central feature of climate change policy, we face, as a Rio de Janeiro taxi driver said to me during the hot, dry, violent winter of 2006 in that city, 13 "urn futuro bandido," literally "a bandit future." That is, we face a future where cities, the places where most of the world's population lives, will experience …

This article will initially summarize the current climate change regulatory environment and the need for innovation. It will then discuss why current intellectual property policies fail to encourage innovation to the extent needed. Finally, this article will examine various proposals for improving our intellectual property system in the area of climate change and recommend initial steps the U.S. could take to encourage the development and disclosure of climate change innovations by balancing economic incentives for innovation with the need to quickly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
