International Trends In Environmental Impact Assessment, Nicholas A. Robinson

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

This paper explores the range of legislation that has created the EIA mandate. A more comprehensive study of all EIA laws is under preparation by the Commission on Environmental Law of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources, but this study will not be complete until 1992. In the absence of such an exhaustive analysis, this paper sketches the global legislative trends in EIA.

The Regulation Of Green Advertising: The State, The Market And The Environmental Good, David S. Cohen Jan 1991

The Regulation Of Green Advertising: The State, The Market And The Environmental Good, David S. Cohen

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

In this paper I explore this most recent development in regulatory policy and, in particular, the role government plays when it chooses to use private markets (consumer, institutional and corporate) as regulatory instruments to produce and allocate environmental benefits. The privatization of environmental regulation by employing markets to deliver environmental benefits does not involve the implementation of public policy through executive or legislative action. Rather, it is achieved through a public choice to privatize the delivery of environmental regulation by permitting or encouraging decentralized economic power to respond to consumer demands for environmental quality.


Energy And Environmental Challenges For Developed And Developing Countries, Richard L. Ottinger Jan 1991

Energy And Environmental Challenges For Developed And Developing Countries, Richard L. Ottinger

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

Energy for development utilizing traditional supply investments, estimated to cost $1.4 - $4 trillion through 2010, will be unaffordable both for recipients and lenders. The capital required, even if obtainable, would squeeze out capital for all other development requirements and would pose unacceptable environmental and cleanup costs. Upgrading existing energy supply systems would cost a fraction of new supply. Energy efficiency and environmentally benign renewables can at least halve new supply capital requirements and avoid their environmental costs. Least cost planning by lenders and recipients, on the basis of total system life cycle costs, for both energy and non-energy related …

Out-Of-State Trash: Solid Waste And The Dormant Commerce Clause, Bradford Mank Jan 1990

Out-Of-State Trash: Solid Waste And The Dormant Commerce Clause, Bradford Mank

Faculty Articles and Other Publications

America faces a garbage crisis. Many cities and states are rapidly depleting their landfill capacity for ordinary municipal solid waste.The "Not In My Back Yard" (NIMBY) syndrome hinders regional and national solutions to the solid waste problem. This Article examines to what extent local communities may exclude solid waste from out-of-state sources without violating the Commerce Clause.


The United States' Enforcement Of The Convention On International Trade In Endangered Species Of Wild Fauna And Flora, Meena Alagappan Jan 1990

The United States' Enforcement Of The Convention On International Trade In Endangered Species Of Wild Fauna And Flora, Meena Alagappan

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

Species loss is an extremely serious, continuing problem. While habitat destruction poses one of the most imminent threats to the survival of wild animals and plants, international trade in wildlife is also a major cause of diminishing biological diversity worldwide. The global market for wildlife is very large, and the goods involved are usually luxury items, such as fur coats and ivory carvings. When this trade is not harnessed, it often tips the balance toward extinction for various forms of wildlife.


The Corporate Conscience And Environmental Issues: Responsibility Of The Multinational Corporation, Alfred S. Farha Jan 1990

The Corporate Conscience And Environmental Issues: Responsibility Of The Multinational Corporation, Alfred S. Farha

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

I shall attempt in this Article to put forward my view of the multinational corporation's responsibility towards the environment in an objective manner, being constructively critical and adequately commending whenever appropriate. In so doing, however, it should be made clear at the outset that there is no intent to put forward the view of any industry as a whole, nor do I mean to imply that what I will have to say is any official position of my own company. This Article will reflect my individual view of how I believe my company and others have reacted and should react …


The Waste Export Control Act: Proposed Legislation And The Reagan-Era Legacy To International Environmental Protection, Alan Neff Jan 1990

The Waste Export Control Act: Proposed Legislation And The Reagan-Era Legacy To International Environmental Protection, Alan Neff

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

On May 31, 1989, four Representatives introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives the Waste Export Control Act'("WECA"). According to the bill's bipartisan sponsors, its purpose is to regulate the export of solid waste from the United States to foreign countries more stringently than existing federal laws and regulations. Three House sub- committees have held hearings in 1988 and 1989 on exports of solid wastes-in advance of, and since, introduction of the legislation discussed in this Article.


International Regulation Of The Sale And Use Of Pesticides, Charlotte Uram Jan 1990

International Regulation Of The Sale And Use Of Pesticides, Charlotte Uram

Northwestern Journal of International Law & Business

This Article discusses international regulation of the sale and use of pesticides. It examines and compares national, regional, and international models as a means of achieving effective international regulation. For the national model, this article selected the United States because it was the first country to impose national restrictions on the export of pesticides. For the regional model, this article selected the European Economic Community because it has sovereign powers, and has been a market-driven entity. For the international model, this article selected the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization because it has the most far-reaching code on the regulation …

The Air Toxics Dilemma: Whither Section 112?, Michael E. Herz Jan 1990

The Air Toxics Dilemma: Whither Section 112?, Michael E. Herz

Articles

The Clean Air Act was the product of a spasm of extraordinary political unanimity. Its actual implementation, however, has been divisive and controversial from the start. For two decades now, politicians, members of the regulated community, environmental activists, and academics have been debating whether the Act represents a rational investment (current expenditures for air pollution control are generally estimated at something above thirty billion dollars), uses optimal or even sensible regulatory mechanisms, or has accomplished anything at all.

Soviet Environmental Protection: The Challenge For Legal Studies, Nicholas A. Robinson Jan 1989

Soviet Environmental Protection: The Challenge For Legal Studies, Nicholas A. Robinson

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The five essays by Soviet environmental law specialists published in this volume of the Pace Environmental Law Review provide insights into the contemporary debate in the USSR about how to protect nature. Before commenting on each essay, it is useful to sketch out the problems which the Soviet Union is encountering as it struggles to cope with its substantial pollution and widespread natural resource misuse.


Jurisdiction For Citizens To Enforce Against Violations Of The Clean Water Act, Jeffrey G. Miller Jan 1989

Jurisdiction For Citizens To Enforce Against Violations Of The Clean Water Act, Jeffrey G. Miller

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

The First Annual Pace National Environmental Moot Court Competition was a splendid event. The students, faculty and administration of Pace were proud to host it. The Competition differs in many ways from other competitions. First, it features a field of law that has only recently become a major focus of legal practice. It is appropriate that Pace, a young law school, sponsor a competition in a new field of law. Second, the Competition's arguments are between three teams (government, industry and environmental advocates) rather than the traditional two. This is appropriate to the many sided nature of environmental disputes. Third, …

Expanding Traditional Land Use Authority Through Environmental Legislation: The Regulation Of Affordable Housing, John R. Nolon

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

This article is devoted to an examination of local land use regulation in the context of the use of SEQRA and its mandate, to mitigate environmental impacts to require the provision of affordable housing in high cost housing markets. As such, it looks at one contemporary manifestation of the growth of police power authority to meet new land use challenges.


Perestroika And Priroda: Environmental Protection In The Ussr, Nicholas A. Robinson Jan 1988

Perestroika And Priroda: Environmental Protection In The Ussr, Nicholas A. Robinson

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

This article reviews the initial Soviet decisions through 1988, applying perestroika to the problem of protecting priroda. Surveyed here is the scope of the ecological problems in the USSR and traditional responses, followed by an examination of the current Soviet policy to restructure its administrative and legal system for environmental protection. These initial reforms will not all result in a direct or immediate improvement of the Soviet environmental protection regime. For instance, the reforms also are stimulating the Soviet "not in my backyard" (NIMBY) phenomenon, or local opposition to the siting of developments ranging from electrical power plants, to facilities …
