U.S. CLIMATE CHANGE POLICY IN THE CONTEXT OF CONGRESSIONAL PARALYSIS
Comprehensive U.S. climate legislation passed the House of Representatives in June 2009 but has stalled in the Senate. What does this mean for U.S. companies, for EPA, for the states, and for the international negotiations? Join us for a frank and lively discussion on how the U.S. and the states should (and likely will) move forward in the face of on-going Congressional paralysis.
