Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

SEER100: The Clean Air Act and Beyond
Q: What is your view on the current regulatory framework's ability to address greenhouse gases and PFAS given the aging statutes?
Lazarus notes that the statutes are capacious enough to address new pollutants in theory, but practical and constitutional questions, court interpretations, and the lack of timely Congress updates create significant implementation challenges.
SEER100: The Clean Air Act and Beyond
Q: Do you think the 1990 Clean Air Amendments built on the 1980s foundation, or did other forces drive bipartisan support for updating the act?
He argues the 1990 amendments were foundational and benefited from a broad, bipartisan coalition despite political ups and downs, reflecting a national consensus on the need for comprehensive air quality improvements.
SEER100: The Clean Air Act and Beyond
Q: My first question for you is about the early days of environmental law: what was it like entering the field as EPA and related agencies were just taking shape around 1970-1972?
Lazarus explains that environmental law was almost undefined as a career path, with agencies rapidly expanding and a nascent field growing through hands-on experience, setting the stage for a long, evolving career.
Emerging Contaminants: Supply Chain
Q: What risks do emerging contaminants pose for companies?
Companies face regulatory risks, potential litigation stemming from contaminants like PFAS, and reputational risks that can affect business operations and M&A activities.
Emerging Contaminants: Supply Chain
Q: What do we mean when we talk about emerging contaminants?
Emerging contaminants can mean different things to different stakeholders, often chemical substances or pathogens that are increasingly recognized as problems due to better detection methods or evolving scientific understanding.
