Lessons Learned From The European Union’S Climate Policy, David Hunter, Nuno Lacasta

Scholarly Articles in Law Reviews & Journals

INTRODUCTION The United States, after ignoring climate policy for the last decade, now finds itself debating the merits of a national cap-and-trade policy.

The stigmatization of tuberculosis persists at present, and public health campaigns may need to address stigma directly.
