UPCOMING:

The Center for Earth Jurisprudence will host “Who’s Next? (And What Will We Leave Them?): Safeguarding the Earth for Future Generations,” on March 26, 2010. The program highlights themes of interdependence and sustainability by examining ongoing efforts to reconcile current human needs and the needs of future generations of all species. Speakers draw connections between human health and the health of ecosystems, and propose ways to balance human social and economic needs with the preservation of the Earth’s species and wild spaces. Speakers also expand the discussion to include legal approaches to combat global warming and its consequences. The program concentrates on the Central Florida area, relating local efforts to broader issues of state, national and international concern.

Four hours of CLE credit, including ethics credit, have been applied for. The program will be held at the Barry University Dwayne O. Andreas School of Law in Orlando, Florida.

Registration is $35 for attorneys; reduced rates are available for students and community members. Continental breakfast and lunch are included in the registration fee.
