We are pround to announce the beginning of an active 2024 - 2025 term at the Environmental Law Committee. Save the Date of September 10, 2024 for our first Joint Committee event of the fall. The recent SCOTUS decision overturning Chevron deference demonstrates that administrative law is in flux. We will look at the implications of the decision on administrative law in a variety of contexts as the Courts are already witnessing an increase in litigation challenging agency decision-making. The Joint Commitee CLE event will include Michael Sahn Chair of the Governmental Relations Committee and Danny De Voe, Esq. , addressing employment law and commercial litigation issues, and will be moderated by Elisabetta Tredici Coschignano Chair of the Municipal Law and Land use committee rounding out the Sahn Ward Braff Koblenz Coschignano PLLC team presenting at this event.

Cormac Cullinan’s remarks here are very astute indeed! When evaluating the normative foundations of environmental law, a paradigm shift in the way that we conceptualise the natural world is required. The law must recognise that all living beings have rights, both intrinsic ones which relate to their experiences (traditionally “animal rights”, but arguably this extends to plant life as well) and extrinsic ones that pertain to the ecological infrastructure within which they live and operate (“the rights of nature”: this includes the rights not to have their habitats and ecosystems excessively damaged—Global Alliance for the Rights of Nature (GARN)). Until we reformulate the underlying legal and ethical principles that appertain to nature, we will continue to unfairly and disproportionately prejudice one species (us) at the expense of the broader Earth system.

Commonwealth Professor of Environmental Law and Sustainability, Widener University Commonwealth Law School
It was both fun and a privilege to speak at a symposium at the at University of Pennsylvania Carey Law School Saturday (Jan. 20) on "The Constitutional Right to a Clean Environment." It was especially good to speak on a panel with Maya van Rossum, James R. May, Franklin Kury and Kate Burgess. Six states have environmental rights amendments to their constitutions, and only four authorize judicial enforcement of them. These states are Pennsylvania, Montana, Hawaii, and New York. (As a legislator in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Franklin Kury drafted, and led the effort for adoption of, the Pennsylvania amendment.) The symposium featured a lively and thoughtful discussion about the extent to which such provisions improve environmental and public protection. Their potential to effectively address climate change also received a lot of attention. I spoke about a draft article that analyzes the many court decisions under these provisions. The article draws three main conclusions about how they have thus far worked in practice: 1) Constitutional environmental rights and public trusts limit governmental authority to act contrary to their provisions. 2) They provide additional authority for governmental efforts to protect the environment and natural resources. 3) In Montana, they provide the basis for legal actions against private parties. The article is available here: https://lnkd.in/e3EatS6g Many thanks to Jessie Levin and the editors and staff at the Journal of Constitutional Law for putting on a lively and informative program. #widenercommonwealthlaw #WidenerLawCW #WidenerLawCWExpertise #constitutionallaw #constitutionalrights #publictrust #climatechange #law #legal #ABAEnvlaw #environmentallaw #lawyer
