Cases and Materials on Environmental Law

This classic casebook, which has shown its staying power over almost forty years, provides students with a thorough understanding of all major environmental regulatory schemes as well as insight into current policy controversies. The book seeks to prepare students for a world in which doctrine remains important but even settled policies may be up for grabs. Beyond doctrine, students need a deep understanding of the policy debates and the ways in which political dynamics impact law and policy. The Eleventh Edition incorporates major new development such as the Supreme Court's rulings in West Virginia v. EPA and Sackett v. EPA, Congress's complete rewrite of NEPA, and the clashing positions of the Biden and Trump Administrations. See more
