From Smokestack To Suv: The Individual As Regulated Entity In The New Era Of Environmental Law, Michael P. Vandenbergh

Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications

A debate between advocates of command and control regulation and advocates of economic incentives has dominated environmental legal scholarship over the last three decades. Both sides in the debate implicitly embrace the premise that regulatory measures should be directed almost exclusively at large industrial polluters. This Article asserts that for many pollutants the premise is no longer supportable, and that much of the focus of regulation in the future should turn to individuals and households. Examining a wide range of empirical data, the Article presents the first profile of individual behavior as a source of pollution. The profile demonstrates that …

Sustainable Energy, Environmental Policy, And States' Rights: Discerning The Energy Future Through The Eye Of The Dormant Commerce Clause, Steven Ferrey

Suffolk University Law School Faculty Works

This article analyzes the various regulatory incentives for renewable energy development in the various states, and their possible Constitutional shortcomings. Almost half the states have enacted renewable portfolio standards, which create monetized renewable energy credits that are tradable credits for sustainable energy development compliance. About one-third of the states have developed system benefit charges and renewable trust funds to subsidize selected renewable energy projects. Each of these states have defined differently what is a qualifying renewable energy project. Some of the states, to further in-state interests, have established programs that impermissibly violate the Commerce Clause of the Constitution. Others come …

With the pivotal role that electric power plays in modern American life, and the key transitional role of the legal and regulatory system in transitioning states to a restructured and less regulated format, there are …
