In this talk\, Richard Miller\, former Vice President for Energy and Environmental Law at Con Edison\, will discuss the birth of the electricity grid in lower Manhattan and the roles of Thomas Edison\, J.P. Morgan\, and Nikola Tesla in creating the grid. He will also discuss how the creation of the electric grid resulted in New York’s adoption of some of the first laws regulating public utilities. Finally\, this talk will discuss the implications of this history for the transition to a cleaner electricity grid and efforts to mitigate climate change. This event is in-person only and is open to the general public. Advanced registration is required. \n  \nFeatured Speaker: \nRichard Miller\, former Vice President for Energy and Environmental Law at Con Edison; former Chief Energy Policy Advisor for NYC \nDiscussants:  \nKatrina Wyman\, Faculty Director\, Guarini Center; Wilf Family Professor of Property Law\, NYU School of Law \nChristine Billy\, Executive Director\, Guarini Center; Adjunct Professor of Law\, NYU School of Law \n  \nCLE \nThis event has been approved to offer 1.5 New York State CLE credit in the category of Areas of Professional Practice. The credit is both transitional and non-transitional; it is appropriate for both experienced and newly admitted attorneys. \n  \nRichard Miller served as Vice President for Energy and Environmental Law at Con Edison from 2018-2023.

SUMMARY:NY Climate Policy in 2025 and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:After the results of the 2024 presidential election\, states\, cities\, and other subnational actors are again coming to the forefront as climate policymakers. New York State and New York City are in the process of implementing key climate legislation and are making efforts toward a clean energy transition. However\, operational\, fiscal\, legal\, and political challenges threaten the speed and scale of the implementation of state and local climate policies\, and the change in federal administration raises looming questions.  \nThis moderated panel discussion will gather insights on the future of New York’s climate policies from multiple perspectives. We will explore key regulatory\, legislative\, and judicial proceedings to watch in the upcoming year and examine potential headwinds and opportunities for climate policymaking at the state and local levels.   \nThis event is in-person only and is open to the general public. Advanced registration is required. REGISTER HERE. \nCLE: This event has been approved to offer 1.5 New York State CLE credits in the category of Areas of Professional Practice.

SUMMARY:CHILDHOOD IN THE CLIMATE CRISIS: Centering Youth in Policy and Practice
DESCRIPTION:Children experience the climate crisis in myriad and far-reaching ways\, but they are rarely at the center of climate conversations. This panel discussion will bring together leaders in government\, medicine\, philanthropy\, and mental health to explore children as both the subjects and agents of climate policymaking. We will discuss how the law should consider the unique ways that children experience the climate crisis\, and how to include children’s perspectives in a broader set of policies in support of a healthy and sustainable future. \nThis event is in-person only and is open to the general public.

SUMMARY:The Future of Environmental Conservation in New York State: Fireside Chat with Deborah Glick
DESCRIPTION:What is the role of state legislatures to lead on environmental policy? In this fireside chat with New York Assemblymember Deborah Glick\, Chair of the Committee on Environmental Conservation\, we will explore the levers that the New York State legislature can utilize to take climate action\, hold polluters accountable\, and protect New York’s wildlife and natural resources.  \nThis event is in-person only and is open to the general public. Advanced registration is required. REGISTER HERE.  \nThis event has been approved to offer 1.5 New York State CLE credits in the category of Areas of Professional Practice. The credit is both transitional and non-transitional; it is appropriate for both experienced and newly appointed attorneys \n  \nPROGRAM \nFeatured speaker: \nDeborah Glick\, New York Assemblymember\, Chair of Assembly Committee on Environmental Conservation  \n  \nModerators:  \nChristine Billy\, Executive Director\, Guarini Center; Adjunct Professor of Law\, NYU School of Law \nKatrina Wyman\, Faculty Director\, Guarini Center; Wilf Family Professor of Property Law\, NYU School of Law \n  \nAbout Assemblymember Deborah Glick: \nAs a representative of Lower Manhattan for over 30 years\, Deborah Glick has been a strong advocate for civil rights\, reproductive freedom\, animals and environmental preservation\, the arts\, and tenants’ rights. Glick’s recent legislative accomplishments include the passage of the Reproductive Health Act\, codifying Roe v. Wade in New York State law\, for which she was the lead sponsor; a bill requiring courts to consider the best interest of a companion animal when determining custody of the pet during a divorce proceeding; the renewal of the Loft Law\, which brings formerly commercial buildings up to residential code and protects current tenants\, many of whom are artists\, from eviction; and a bill authorizing New York City to expand a life-saving speed safety camera program\, allowing speed safety cameras to be installed in hundreds of school zones\, an initiative proven to significantly reduce traffic crashes near schools. Her current legislative priorities include the passage of the Packaging Reduction and Recycling Infrastructure Act (PRRIA) and the Bigger Better Bottle Bill\, which combined seek to advance waste reduction goals and address harms from single-use plastics and other waste materials affecting the health of New Yorkers and the environment. Glick chairs the New York Assembly Committee on Environmental Conservation and also serves on the Ways and Means\, Rules\, and Governmental Operations Committees.
