The 2016 election signals major shifts in United States environmental policy. There are real questions about what the election means for the ongoing commitment to national environmental laws, and to international environmental agreements. To some extent, this is true whenever the White House changes hands, but the changes associated with this particular transition are likely to have major ramifications for environmental policy, environmental priorities and even the structure and function of the EPA. In this panel, a distinguished group of former government officials will discuss what is on the horizon, and how the legal academy might respond.
