Please join the Environmental Law Society and the Environmental & Energy Law Program for a lunch talk with Corinne Van Dalen. Corinne is an Earthjustice senior attorney based in New Orleans, LA. She will speak about her recent work challenging the permit of a massive plastics plant in what advocates commonly refer to as “Cancer Alley,” Louisiana. If built, the plant would become one of the most polluting plastics facilities in the world and would double the emissions of toxic pollutants in the local area. This is a great opportunity for students interested in learning more about environmental justice litigation!
Corinne will be speaking on Zoom. You are welcome to attend on your own or via a livestream in WCC 5047. There will be grab and go food available at the end of the event. We hope to see you there!
