The annual Environmental Awards Banquet is a highlight of Berkeley Law’s energy and environmental law program and community, bringing together students, alumni, faculty, and other community members.

Ecology Law Quarterly (ELQ) is the nation’s premier student-edited law journal focusing on environmental, natural resource, and energy issues. Since its founding in 1970, ELQ has been the recipient of multiple awards, and continues to be one of the most-cited journals in the field.
