Elimination Of The Depletion Deduction For Fossil Fuels, Wendy B. Davis

Seattle University Law Review

This article argues that the depletion deduction provision is a misguided incentive that has been falsely analogized and justified, and it should be abolished in order to provide funds to protect and preserve the environment. The additional revenue generated should be used to encourage the development of renewable resources and to remediate the harm caused by the extraction and use of fossil fuels. Specifically, the depletion deduction for reduction in the supply of nonrenewable resources such as coal and oil should be eliminated to (1) ensure certain and equal treatment under the tax laws; (2) encourage development of renewable energy …

Renewable Energy Sources For Development, Richard L. Ottinger

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

Renewable energy resources hold great promise for meeting the energy and development needs of countries throughout the world. This promise is particularly strong for developing countries where many regions have not yet committed to fossil fuel dominance. Solar photovoltaic and solar thermal technologies are particularly advantageous for serving the two billion people in rural areas without grid electricity. Modern biomass energy is attractive because it uses locally available agricultural wastes. Wind energy and small hydroelectric resources also are mature technologies well suited to developing countries. Such renewable resources are far more economical than traditional energy resources, especially where the costs …

Sacrificing The Salmon: A Legal History Of The Decline Of Columbia Basin Salmon (Full Text Part 1 Of 2), Michael Blumm

Books & Contributions to Books

Salmon remain the cultural and economic soul of the Pacific Northwest, a species whose very life cycle largely defines the region. At the center of the salmon region lies the Columbia River, which once supported the world's largest salmon runs and which now is home to the world's largest interconnected hydroelectric system. These massive federal and non-federal dams have devasted Columbia Basin salmon runs, some of which are now exinct, others are on life-support.

This book tells the story of the decline of the Columbia Basin salmon in the 20th century. But it begins earlier, with the signing of mid-19th …
