Registration is now open for the 2011 Tulane Environmental Law Summit!

The theme of this year's Summit, to be held April 1-3, is "The Energy Equation" and the following is a brief synopsis:

"Energy: how we will get it and how we will use it are two of the most important policy questions in the country today. Both the production and use of energy can have far reaching and sometimes unanticipated environmental effects. The Energy Equation will focus on many of the hot topics in United States energy policy, including the declining reserves of our most popular energy resources, the pros and cons of our renewable energy resources and how policy decisions influence energy use in the United States." 
 
This year's panels include:
- Transportation and Energy Policy
- Peak Oil
- Native American Populations and Fuel Resources
- Wind Energy Panel
- Chinese Energy Policy and Development
- Updating the Energy Grid
- Fracking
