To armor against the rising tide of climate change and its accompanying flood of litigation, California should create a specialized environmental court to adjudicate state climate issues.

This Note uses western Lane County as a case study to diagnose sticking points in conservation under the ESA and prescribe characteristics of management strategies more likely to sustain both resource extraction-dependent communities and populations of listed specie

This Note explores how fracking has slipped through the cracks in a closely regulated industry. Examining the root of the problem, this Note outlines how we might design an administrative apparatus to address emerging environmental harms in the context of aging oil and gas infrastructure.

CAISO provides many benefits to Californians, but a West-wide RTO could provide even more. The urgent need to garner new sources of renewable electricity generation necessitates that California facilitate the creation of a regional grid operator that can effectively promote the development of new, green transmission lines.
