  1. "Cities’ autonomy and ambition propel them to legislate when Congress is logjammed, regulate when the EPA is legally constrained, and implement when the federal government is too unwieldy to make a real difference in communities on the ground. It is time to move on from the outdated notion that they play only a limited role in the federalist system; on climate, they are the leaders."

  6. "A key and underrated aspect of the recent triad of climate rulings of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) is that the ECtHR has brought to the fore the role of trade-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in states’ carbon footprints...As I will argue, the ruling all but requires Switzerland to adopt a climate-oriented trade policy."

  7. This is the kind of exquisitely intricate and highly crafted policy-relevant research offering low-hanging analytic fruit that makes me want to weep, thinking in terms of what might survive the legislative process leading to actual policy in law & regulation.

    Slightly facetiously, a bit like dropping a Swiss watch into a rock-crusher and then hoping to read the time of day at the exit conveyor belt.
