Senior Counsel Jeff Civins will speak at the 9th Law of Shale Plays Conference on September 5, 2018. He will moderate a panel titled “Climate Change Litigation – Ramifications for Energy Development.”
Concerns with climate change, fueled by the present political climate, have resulted in the filing of novel claims by governmental and non-governmental entities against the federal government and private parties. These claims seek various types of relief, and pose particular risks for the fossil-fuel sector of the energy industry. This panel will provide the legal and technical context for these lawsuits as well as their potential ramifications for energy development. Register here.
