Beyond 2012: Meeting the Nation's Environmental, Energy, and Resources Challenges -- ABA Webinar

This ABA sponsored CLE program will focus on law and policy challenges the nation is likely to face in mid-2013 in the environmental, energy, and resource areas, and possible approaches to address them. These challenges will exist regardless of who controls the White House and Congress at that time.

For that reason, the speakers will concentrate on assisting lawyers and clients in anticipating and responding to critical issues without regard to the outcome of the 2012 election. Many current controversies and dilemmas seem likely to persist, but the speakers, who have vast experience in their fields, will identify and comment on emerging topics as well. The program will include remarks by each speaker centered on his or her area of expertise, followed by a discussion among the speakers of topics on cross-cutting importance.
