SYMPOSIUM: ENVIRONMENTAL ACCOUNTABILITY IN AN AGE OF CONSEQUENCES: FORWORD, 38 W. NEW ENG. L. REV. 307 (2016)

The five articles in this Symposium issue each take a different approach to addressing environmental accountability. There is unequivocal evidence that the climate system is warming, caused mainly by the measurable increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. The Symposium authors include Denis Binder, Susan Stark, Julie E. Steiner, Chris Erchull, Laura Fisher, and Daniel DePasquale. These Authors challenge all to think broadly about utilization of different accountability mechanisms to insure better environmental outcomes
