Terminal Illness: The Political Ecology And Political Economy Of The Millennium Bulk Coal Export Terminal, Longview, Wa, Paige McNorvell 2019 Central Washington University

Terminal Illness: The Political Ecology And Political Economy Of The Millennium Bulk Coal Export Terminal, Longview, Wa, Paige Mcnorvell

All Master's Theses

The declining demand for coal in the United States (U.S. Energy Information Administration [EIA] 2016) has led to a push by the coal industry for the construction of export terminals in the Pacific Northwest that would supply coal from the Powder River Basin of Montana and Wyoming to Asia. Though none of the proposed terminals have been approved for construction, the Millennium Bulk Coal Export Terminal in Longview, Washington remains a potentially viable option pending decisions in state and federal courts. In this thesis, I critically analyze the Millennium Bulk Terminal permitting process through a mixed-methods qualitative approach that uses …


Introduction: Property In Ecology, Jonathan Adler 2019 Case Western Reserve University School of Law

Introduction: Property In Ecology, Jonathan Adler

Faculty Publications

The papers in this volume explore the further potential for property-based institutions to preserve environmental values and enhance environmental protection. Through case studies, empirical assessments, and consideration of the institutional constraints that may alternatively facilitate or hamper private conservation efforts, these papers deepen our understanding of the institutional context in which conservation occurs and the potential for property-based approaches to supplement, if not supplant, traditional government management of natural resources and environmental regulation. Together, they aim to enhance the conservation potential of property institutions by looking at how such institutions may be extended and defended so as to maximize property’s …


Counter-Intuitive Climate Forcing: Post Paris Agreement Corporate Incentives, Steven Ferrey 2019 Suffolk University Law School

Counter-Intuitive Climate Forcing: Post Paris Agreement Corporate Incentives, Steven Ferrey

Suffolk University Law School Faculty Works

This article applies a micro-level lens to details of disincentives embodied in the new U.S. tax law effective in 2018, affecting corporate action to address climate change, and applies a macro-level assessment of how corporate action is affecting U.S. realization of its climate change goals and requirements. The article examines and offers several state law options that can substitute as alternative incentives, and an unrelated ‘Opportunity Zone’ provision in the new federal tax law, all of which can provide alternative legal paths.


“Greening” The Charter: Section 7 And The Right To A Healthy Environment, Lauren Worstman 2019 Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University

“Greening” The Charter: Section 7 And The Right To A Healthy Environment, Lauren Worstman

Dalhousie Journal of Legal Studies

Canada is among one of the few remaining United Nations member states that does not have a constitutionally protected right to a healthy environment. Amid concerns about climate change and its impact on human health and well-being, the Constitution has become a focal point for advancing environmental justice in Canada. This paper explores three questions surrounding environmental rights and the Constitution. First, does the right to life, liberty, and security of the person, protected by section 7 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, protect a right to a healthy environment? If it does, would such a right strengthen …

Sustainability Values Of Students As Influences On The Image Of A University Transitioning To Sustainability, Anna A. Mendiola

Marketing and Law Faculty Publications

The journey toward sustainability is a difficult process for a university given the complex requirements necessary for becoming sustainable. To implement sustainability initiatives effectively, therefore, it is important to obtain the support and commitment of university stakeholders. Having a good image as far as the school’s efforts at sustainability are concerned engages stakeholders and encourages that commitment. It is an important element of change as it provides evidence that the school is indeed serious in its activities. Yet is the perception of the school’s image influenced by the students’ sustainability values? A survey of 798 college students at a private …
