The 24th annual Public Interest Environmental Conference: Our Climate: The Only Constant is Change. For over twenty years, the Public Interest Environmental Conference (PIEC) has sought to promote an understanding of the legal aspects of environmental protection, to serve and inform individuals as to the necessity for improvements in environmental legal protection, foster the development of sound environmental legislation, measure the effects of environmental litigation, and to assist other groups involved in environmental education. The conference brings together legal practitioners, academics, policy makers, and private citizens to discuss preeminent issues surrounding a different environmental topic each year. The theme of the 2018 conference is climate change and will examine the challenges, concerns, and future of law, policy, and science related to climate change from a local, regional, and national standpoint.
