Please join us as Nicholas Ashford, Professor of Technology and Director of the Technology and Law Program at MIT, shows how environmental law cases have led to important legal, economic, and scientific developments, and how use of the law can stimulate technological change and industrial transformation.

“Ashford and Caldart have produced an extraordinary book sweeping across the scientific complexity, legal underpinnings, economic logic, and policy challenges of environmental protection...this book offers an indispensable foundation for those seeking to understand society’s approach to environmental challenges.” — Daniel C. Esty, Yale Law School

Nicholas Ashford  is Professor of Technology and Director of the Technology and Law Program at MIT.

"Environmental Law, Policy, and Economics" is published by the MIT Press.

The book is co-authored by Charles C. Caldart, Director of Litigation of the National Environmental Law Center and a Lecturer in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at MIT.

This event is open to the public, free, and wheelchair accessible.

Driving & Parking Advice

Driving? Useful driving directions may be found on the Getting to MIT page.

Parking? Due to the large amount of construction on the MIT campus, parking has become fairly challenging. We encourage visitors to take public transportation whenever possible. If you do drive to one of our events, you may park in the MIT lot listed below but only after 4:00 PM weeknights, and all day on weekends:
