Rising to the Challenge
A global consensus has emerged regarding the critical need to address climate change and the environmental impact of greenhouse gas emissions. Governments, industries, and companies around the world are rising to the climate change challenge. They are engaged in the evaluation, development, and implementation of measures, policies, and practices to limit greenhouse gas emissions, with the objective of establishing an effective yet workable regime that accounts for the significant diversity of economic and political interests.
At King & Spalding, we recognize the challenges faced by our clients in responding to these developments in the climate change landscape. King & Spalding’s Climate Change Task Force is an inter-practice initiative that advises clients on the complex matters related to climate change, including new state, regional, and national legislative and regulatory measures and proposals and the significant legal and economic implications of these new measures and proposals.
Our Climate Change Task Force includes lawyers with proven experience in climate change matters and expertise in diverse practice areas, including:
| Environmental |
International Trade |
| Government Advocacy |
Tax |
| Litigation |
Antitrust |
| Energy |
International Arbitration |
Our objective is to help clients assess the risks and benefits presented by climate change developments at the state, regional, national, and international level and to advise them on how to position themselves to comply with new requirements and, where possible, gain competitive advantages from them.
