I didn’t quite appreciate how nice it would be if you took a law school but made everyone an environmental law professor

Sharing the Social Value of Offshore Wind
YouTube video by The Nature Conservancy Sharing the Social Value of Offshore Wind

Last week, I presented research into the use of community benefit agreements in offshore wind development in a webinar hosted by @nature.org. It was a great conversation about the potential for CBAs and which states are leading the charge. Please check out recording, www.youtube.com/watch?v=KJXv...

OPEC+ and Trump Circle Each Other, But US Producers Are Playing Their Own Game With Trump expected to chase increased oil exports and more drilling in the US, OPEC+’s fear of losing market share looms larger than ever.

I was quoted in The Daily Upside on the conflict between OPEC+ and U.S. oil production goals. I don't see the economics or geology to support any immediate major boost in production. The numbers don't add up.

What do you do when your student works on federal grid deployment strategies?

You invite them to present. So happy to have Peggy Giordano from DOE's Grid Deployment Office, and VLGS 1L, present on the GDO's programs to create a stronger, bigger, and more resilient transmission grid.

It is so much fun to watch our students enjoy their successes and celebrate their accomplishments. I am proud to belong to a community of changemakers and to watch my students grow into incredible lawyers and advocates.

Welcomed @justinmikulka.bsky.social from @oilfieldwitness.bsky.social into my Oil & Gas class to talk about the future of the oil and gas industry, unfunded liabilities, and pulling the "emergency brake" on methane emissions. Conversations with experts also make for a better learning environment.

Proud to share all the great things that our faculty, staff, and students have been working on this semester.
