The Environmental Law and Policy Annual Review (ELPAR) is published by the Environmental Law Institute’s (ELI’s) Environmental Law Reporter in partnership with Vanderbilt University Law School. ELPAR has provided a forum each year for the presentation and discussion of some of the most creative and feasible environmental law and policy proposals culled from the legal academic literature. The student editors of ELPAR, with input from the course instructors, narrow down the pool of environmental articles published during the prior year to a list of about 20 contenders, all of which meet ELPAR’s criteria of persuasiveness, impact, feasibility, and creativity. ELPAR elected for the first time to share the year’s list of top 20 environmental articles.
