Environmental Impact Statements And Climate Change, David Wirth, Glenn Prickett Feb 1989

Environmental Impact Statements And Climate Change, David Wirth, Glenn Prickett

David A. Wirth

Recent demands by atmospheric scientists and policy makers for immediate, comprehensive, and effective responses to the threat of global climate change have focused political attention on policies and laws that affect the quality of the environment. In January, the Reagan White House blocked the issuance of policy guidance that would have directed federal agencies to consider global climate change in the preparation of environmental impact statements (EIS). The Bush administration now has an early opportunity to reverse this decision. Using detailed computer models of the Earth's climate, atmospheric scientists have produced startling scenarios of the future climate conditions that will …

Climate Chaos, David A. Wirth Dec 1988

Climate Chaos, David A. Wirth

David A. Wirth

This 1989 article in Foreign Policy -- of considerable interest from an historical point of view -- is one of the first systematically to outline the causes and effects of impending climate change. Among other policy measures, the article argues for new international agreements in order to mitigate the damaging effects of climate disruption. Because climate change is likely negatively to impact all nations, taking steps to reduce the rate and amount of change must be an international priority for the entire world. The proposed treaty would require reducing the global output of CO2 substantially, while committing developed countries to …

Resolving Superfund Disputes Using Mediation, R. Konkel Apr 1987

Resolving Superfund Disputes Using Mediation, R. Konkel

Steve Konkel

Superfund clean-up disputes are difficult to resolve because they involve multiple issues in addition to multiple parties. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and waste generator negotiators often disagree about how to interpret technical or scientific information. Examples of difficult issues include company shares of the clean-up cost, potential threat to groundwater, and what environmental standards apply to clean-up; "how clean is clean" is not at all well understood. Industry typically focueses on fairness of the allocation of cost and liability and the cost and responsibility for clean-up.


Risk Management In The United States: Three Case Studies Dioxin Emissions And Trash-To-Energy Plants In New York City, R. Steven Konkel Feb 1987

Risk Management In The United States: Three Case Studies Dioxin Emissions And Trash-To-Energy Plants In New York City, R. Steven Konkel

Steve Konkel

New York City, the largest US municipality with a population of 12 million, presently generates 28,000 tons of garbage per day. Its main disposal facility Fresh Kills-is expected to be the only one of four presently operating landfills still in in use in 1987, and to be filled to capacity be 2001. Institutional, economic, and environmental obstacles severely restrict landfill options within the city, and ocean disposal of municipal solid waste is not considered feasible. In short, continued reliance on landfills to absorb the City's enormous volume of municpal waste is no longer considered viable.

Environmental Policy Law In The 1980'S: Shifting Back The Burden Of Proof, Martin H. Belsky Jan 1984

Environmental Policy Law In The 1980'S: Shifting Back The Burden Of Proof, Martin H. Belsky

Martin H. Belsky

This article will describe the legal and policy burdens of proof applicable to environmental decision-making and the shifts that have occurred in allocating those burdens. The initial change occurred when common-law principles gave way to a pro-protection legal framework established during an "environmental era." The second change occurred more recently when a new environmental policy law agenda was set. Through regulatory reforms, policy alterations, statutory proposals and budgetary and personnel actions, the federal executive is now seeking to develop a more pro-development structure and again place the burden of proof on those seeking to secure government action to protect the …
