Synopsis

"Renewable Energy Mandates" explores how governments worldwide use legal mechanisms to promote sustainable energy, addressing climate change and energy security. The book examines incentives, like tax credits, penalties for non-compliance, and infrastructure investment obligations driving the shift from fossil fuels. It highlights that while mandates are vital, their effectiveness depends on careful design and enforcement.

 
For example, feed-in tariffs can incentivize renewable energy projects, while carbon taxes can discourage fossil fuel use. The book analyzes different types of legal mandates, using case studies from various countries to evaluate successes and failures. It connects to economics, examining the economic impacts on energy prices and job creation, and to political science, analyzing the political feasibility of implementing renewable energy policies.

 
Beginning with the evolution of energy policy and the growing recognition of climate change, the book progresses through legal concepts, incentives, penalties, and infrastructure investment. A unique aspect of this book is its comparative approach, identifying best practices across different jurisdictions. It aims to provide a balanced assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of different types of mandates, offering valuable insights for policymakers, legal professionals, and anyone interested in a sustainable energy future.

    As a journalist on the climate security beat, Peter Schwartzstein has been chased by kidnappers, badly beaten, detained by police, and told, in no uncertain terms, that he was no longer welcome in certain countries. Yet these personal brushes with violence are simply a hint of the conflict simmering in our warming world. 
     
     
      
    Schwartzstein has visited ravaged Iraqi towns where ISIS used drought as a recruiting tool and weapon of terror. And he has heard the fear in the voices of women from around the world who say their husbands' tempers flare when the temperature ticks up. 
     
     
      
    In The Heat and the Fury, he not only puts listeners on the frontlines of climate violence but gives us the context to make sense of seemingly senseless acts. As Schwartzstein deftly shows, climate change is often the spark that ignites long smoldering fires, the extra shove that pushes individuals, communities, and even nations over the line between frustration and lethal fury. What, he asks, can ratchet down the aggression? 
     
     
      
    Schwartzstein's incisive analysis of geopolitics, unparalleled on-the-ground reporting, and keen sense of human nature offer the clearest picture to date of the violence that threatens us all.

    In 2023, the Supreme Court made one of its most devastating rulings in environmental history. By narrowing the legal definition of "waters of the United States" (WOTUS), the court opened the floodgates to unregulated pollution. But while tremendously consequential, the decision was also simply the latest in a long series of battles over WOTUS, and which rivers, streams, lakes, ponds, wetlands, and perhaps even farm fields were to be protected by the Clean Water Act of 1972. 
     
     
      
    Waters of the United States is an unprecedented exploration of this history—and its importance for today's efforts to conserve a critical natural resource. The book not only examines how bodies of water are legally defined (and therefore protected), but who gets to decide on these definitions. The result is a fascinating look at the ongoing power struggle between the president and federal agencies, the courts, the states, and Congress, over water quality. 
     
     
      
    Waters of the United States offers the detailed analysis necessary for any lawyer or environmental advocate to understand the nuances of water policy, while spinning a compelling narrative for listeners who have never cracked a law book. The unique mix of insights into environmental law, history, and politics is required for anyone who cares about the future of the nations water.
