Abstract

On September 19, 2008, 63 lawyers from across British Columbia gathered for the first Continuing Legal Education Society course on public interest environmental law. Covering topics such as access to justic, environmental assessment, smart growth and climate change, the course provided a snapshot of this growing field. Public interest environmental law has burgeoned in North America in the past ten years, and B.C. is entering a new era of a more networked and collegial practitioner community.
