Environmental Law Before the Courts

  • Categories: Law

This book sheds light on the latest trends in environmental law by analyzing some of the main sectors of law, including administrative law, constitutional law, EU law, US Law, and human rights law. It explores the evolution of these sectors before courts and tribunals from a US-EU perspective and from the perspectives of some of the foremost academics and justices from the major jurisdictions. Supranational and national courts, both in Europe and in the US, have delivered significant environmental judgements in recent years. The corresponding case law reflects how, in many jurisdictions, environmental and climate litigation continues to expand exponentially as a tool to strengthen environmental protection, whether by pushing national governments to be more ambitious or by enforcing existing statutes and regulations. Courts, particularly after the Paris Agreement, are increasingly seeking their own role as an important player in multilevel environmental governance. Courts in both the US and EU are at the forefront of this process and their role in shaping environmental rule of law will be fundamental in the near future.

Racist, Not Racist, Antiracist

“Hey, that was kind of racist.” “I'm not a racist! I have Black friends.” This exchange highlights a problem with how people in the United States tend to talk about racially tricky situations. As Racist, Not Racist, Antiracist: Language and the Dynamic Disaster of American Racism explores, such situations are ordinarily categorized as either racist or not racist (or, in other cases, as antiracist). The problem is, there are often situations that are racially not good, but that we do not want to categorize as racist, either. However, since we don’t have the language to describe this in-between, we are forced to fall back on the racist/not racist/antiracist trinary, which tends to sh...

Stanley Tucci is an amazing actor as well as a director. He has co-written, co-directed, and produced many films. Over the years he had played several roles and never failed to take the challenge to do any role. Stanley had a tough time dealing with the death of his first wife; he lost her to breast cancer. After the death of his first wife, Tucci got married to Felicity Blunt. He connected with his second by sharing their common passion for food and literature. Unfortunately, another tragedy happened in Tucci’s life when he got diagnosed with cancer. Cancer affected him a lot, as he was not able to take any proper foods, which was really upsetting for him. In an interview, Tucci shared that it was his wife who stood with him throughout the disease and helped him recover. Stanley has won many awards for his performance, including the Emmy Award, the Golden Globe Award, and the BAFTA Award. He also got nominated for other awards and got an Actors’ Equity card for his great performance. He is a strong example of never giving up and taking on new challenges. Let’s discover the most delicious roles and books written by this food-loving actor.

I'm Not a Numbers Person

How often have you heard it said, or even said yourself, ‘I’m not a numbers person?’ Well, Dr Selena Fisk believes we no longer have a choice. Data is everywhere. Smart watches track our steps and heart rate, social media platforms recommend people we might know and products we might like, and map applications suggest when we should leave home depending on the traffic. When you get off the phone to a customer service representative, you are asked to take a survey. Why? Because the data from the survey drives business decisions. Numbers are all around us and can help us make better decisions. The good news is that anyone can become a numbers person. I’m Not a Numbers Person shows you how to collect data in your working life, how to interpret it, present it visually and understand the story that it tells. These stories will be powerful for decision-making and for driving growth and productivity in your organisation. Whether you’re a solopreneur, a small business owner, an emerging leader, or in an executive leadership role, this book is a must-have guide to understanding data and making better decisions in the 21st century.
