Excellent- More about Environmental Law, Disrupted.
U.S. law has hindered an honest assessment of our preparedness to face climate change. This book explores the disruptive effects of environmental changes on human and ecological safety, security, and well-being and identifies key changes needed to respond to climatic challenges, social inequities, and dwindling grey and green resources. It also deconstructs social, political, and professional frameworks to understand how such influences might be used to disrupt the current regime.

The United States' legal framework has posed significant barriers to a comprehensive evaluation of our readiness to confront the challenges posed by climate change. Given the prevailing sense of comfort in mild climatic conditions and the widespread resistance to change, the sudden onset of extreme and abrupt climate shifts will have far-reaching consequences. Our current legal structure perpetuates a dangerous status quo, and it is imperative to unlock the potential of communities and the private sector to develop innovative solutions.
This book, the fourth installment in a series by the Environmental Law Collaborative, explores the disruptions caused by various factors and perspectives. Several essays examine the disruptive impacts of environmental changes on human safety, security, and well-being, highlighting the inadequacy of the current legal system to account for the consequences of climate change. Other essays identify critical adjustments required to address climate challenges, social inequalities, and the depletion of grey and green resources. Additionally, some essays deconstruct social, political, and professional frameworks to understand how these influences can be leveraged to disrupt the current regime or even those where expectations are being disrupted through the endorsement of law.
Collectively, these essays offer a comprehensive understanding of the causes, effects, and opportunities that environmental disruption presents in the context of climate change.
