MODERATED DISCUSSION • HYBRID
California & Clean Trucks: Challenges & Solutions to Deployment
Wednesday, March 13, 2024
12:00 – 1:00 PM (Pacific)
Join CLEE for a moderated discussion on the regulations and deployment of zero-emission heavy duty vehicles in our new briefing series hosted at the UC Center Sacramento. Heavy duty vehicles are a significant source of greenhouse gas emissions and a major source of toxic air pollution, which disproportionately impacts disadvantaged communities. California has set nation-leading standards to establish manufacturers’ sales, reporting requirements, and fleet obligations for zero emission heavy duty vehicles, as well as collaborating with global partners to accelerate the adoption of these vehicles. This talk will discuss the implementation challenges California faces and ways to overcome them. We are grateful to Bank of America for helping to sponsor this research and the Ideas to Action Fund for sponsoring the event. The event will be hosted both in-person and on Zoom and a link to the video recording will be sent after the talk.

Ecology Law Quarterly’s 2024 Annual Banquet

We welcome you to join us for the annual Ecology Law Quarterly’s Environmental Awards banquet on Tuesday, April 16th from 5:30 to 8:30 pm at the Bancroft Hotel. The annual Environmental Awards Banquet is a highlight of Berkeley Law’s energy and environmental law program and community. Ecology Law Quarterly (ELQ) is the nation’s premier student-edited law journal focusing on environmental, natural resource, and energy issues. Our Environmental Leadership Award winner this year is Julia Olson, Executive Director and founder of Our Children’s Trust, who prevailed in a landmark lawsuit against the state of Montana, in which 16 youth sued to enforce the state’s constitutional right to a clean and healthful environment. Her work is inspiring a new wave of climate litigation demanding that governments preserve the environment for future generations.
