Erin Ryan, Associate Dean
for Environmental Programs
Spring in Tallahassee lightens everyone’s mood—with new growth on every tree, a parade of flowers throughout the community, and lengthening days that aren’t yet hot. It’s a good time to think about the human and ecological communities we are part of, and how we keep them vibrant through the work that we do here at the Center. We’re exceedingly proud of that work, and of our forthcoming Environmental Certificate and LL.M graduates—who we know will join the ranks of environmental, energy, and land use law with these goals forefront in mind.

Don Weidner
We are also bidding a fond farewell to a pioneer within our program, Don Weidner, former Dean of the Law School and an honored member of our land use law team. He will begin his hard-earned retirement this summer after spending four decades on the faculty, most of them at the helm as our Dean. His vision over 25 years of leadership was a critical factor in launching the environmental law program here at FSU, and in bringing FSU Law School into our Tier 1 status. Together with the countless alumni he shepherded through these halls, all of us here are grateful for the warmth, wit, and passion that he has shared with us for so long, and we know he will remain a vital part of our community long into the future.  Congratulations, Don! --ER

State Law Climate Suits to Continue in State Courts

[https://d31hzlhk6di2h5.cloudfront.net/20230403/49/4d/78/84/20bee79aedf8c018f2c3530a_382x398.jpg]

In 2011, the Supreme Court held in American Electric Power v. Connecticut that the Clean Air Act (CAA) and the EPA action it authorized “displace any federal common law right to seek abatement of carbon-dioxide emissions from fossil-fuel fired power plants.” The Court did not decide whether the plaintiffs’ state law claims were also preempted, as that issue had not been briefed before the Court.
With their federal common law nuisance claims displaced, plaintiffs around the country unsurprisingly began suing energy companies in state courts under a variety of state law theories. Just as unsurprisingly, perhaps, defendants sought removal of those cases, seeking the ostensibly friendlier confines of federal courts in which to argue that plaintiffs’ state law claims were displaced or preempted by federal law. A sound plan except for one small catch: defendants cannot argue their federal preemption defenses in federal courts if there is no basis for removal to those courts in the first instance.
Enter the First, Third, Fourth, Ninth, and Tenth Circuit Courts of Appeals, which over the past couple of years have all rejected defendants’ attempts to remove plaintiffs’ state law climate claims into federal courts. In its recent decision, Minnesota v. American Petroleum Institute, the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals now has joined its sister Circuits. Minnesota sued several energy companies in state court for common law fraud and violations of Minnesota’s consumer protection statutes, alleging that the energy companies “have known for decades that the production and use of fossil fuels damages the environment” and that instead of “owning up to these harmful effects” the companies “engaged in a misinformation campaign to deceive consumers and suppress the truth about climate change.”  Defendants removed the case to a federal district court, which subsequently granted Minnesota’s motion to remand.
In affirming the district court’s decision that there was no federal court jurisdiction, the Eighth Circuit held that Minnesota’s “claims are not removable under the general removal statute, the federal officer removal statute, the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, or the Class Action Fairness Act.” Notably, the Eighth Circuit concluded, like its Sister Circuits, that the federal common law on transboundary pollution does not “completely preempt” Minnesota’s state law claims such as to render the case removable.
No Circuit Court has reached a contrary conclusion. For now, then, state law climate claims filed in state courts will continue to proceed in state courts, even though it creates the seemingly incongruous situation described by the concurrence in Minnesota – federal courts prevented from adjudicating cases in which plaintiffs “seek[] a global remedy for a global issue” and defendants rely on federal preemption defenses.

Each semester, the Journal of Land Use and Environmental Law brings the nation's foremost scholars in environment, energy, and land use law to the campus of Florida State University.
Georgetown Professor William Buzbee presented the Spring 2023 Distinguished Environmental Lecture, entitled "Fears, Faith, and Facts in Environmental Law." In his lecture, Professor Buzbee identified the kinds of fear and faith that catalyze environmental regulatory action, as well as the disparate fears and faith that foment legal constraints to check regulatory abuses. Considering the volatility of environmental law’s most pressing challenges—including climate change, political vacillations, and changing dynamics on the U.S. Supreme Court—Professor Buzbee discussed how greater attention to the documentation of statutorily significant facts and science can help surmount the growing conflicts between the different sources of fear and faith.
Professor Buzbee holds the inaugural Edward and Carole Walter Professor chair and serves as the Faculty Director of Georgetown Law’s Environmental Law & Policy Program.

Graduating FSU Law student Caroline Dike received a full-tuition scholarship to attend to the American Law Institute CLE on Environmental Law on February 16-17 in Arlington, VA. The conference helps lawyers understand the current state of environmental law, and network with practice area experts from across the country.
 Over the course of two days, I viewed panels of attorneys representing a wide variety of private and public entities in the field who discussed prominent issues. From an overview of CERCLA litigation, analysis of recent U.S. Supreme Court cases, consideration of emerging contaminants and toxic torts, to energy law developments—this conference addressed an assortment of environmental law challenges and actions occurring across the country. The conference was a great learning and networking experience, as attorneys, EPA administrators, reporters, consultants, and many others attended to update themselves on important legal issues in the field. I am honored to have been chosen as a scholarship recipient to attend, and I am looking forward to graduating into the practice of environmental and energy law! --Caroline Dike

We are very excited to share that the Student Animal Legal Defense Fund (SALDF) at FSU Law is assisting the Florida Bar Animal Law Section with editing the Florida Bar Animal Law Treatise. This is the first Florida-specific treatise on animal law, and will be available to the 500 members of the Animal Law Section, law schools, and others. The Executive Editors of the Treatise are Ralph A. DeMeo ('84) and Macie Codina ('22), both attorneys at Guilday Law in Tallahassee, Gregg R. Morton, General Counsel of Florida PERC, and Michelle Ballard, Florida PERC Hearing Officer, all of whom are also members of The Animal Law Section Executive Council.
The following FSU Law students are serving as Treatise Editors: Savannah Sherman, Alan Gonzalez, Darya Momeni, Sophia Akel, Jennifer Camisa, Shawn Soscia, Angelique Howard, Shannon Kelley, Baleigh Brown, James King.
FSU Law Professor and SALDF Advisor Patricia Matthews also serve as Treatise Editor, and lead the work of FSU law students.
There are over 24 articles on a variety of animal law topics, including domestic animals, wildlife, and other important topics. More articles will be added.

Each year, students take advantage of our highly-respected Environmental Externship Program<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/t.e2ma.net/click/tkw25d/90z4j7lb/9gc5si__;!!PhOWcWs!zjDuoiQ3tqVHaN2Bb2Yfk9S-iQPO4N3UGIIGlVMfOJ9y9of6L_wsH-BlR0QC3960suFRzBOw08YB0KE$>, which includes many extern opportunities in the fields of environmental, energy, and land use law. For the Spring of 2023, seven students joined the environmental externship program with six agencies:

  *   City of Tallahassee - Environmental and Land Use - Neal Mars
  *   Division of Administrative Hearings - Environment - Matthew Taylor

The objective of the tour was to provide students with a sense of the interconnected nature of pollution on land and water quality. By following the journey of water from Cascades Park to the Wakulla Springs, students were able to appreciate the multiple points at which pollution and improper disposal creates a water pollution problem. Wakulla Springs Alliance Founding Member Jim Stevenson joined and spoke to the students as the group literally followed the water from inland to Wakulla Springs. The group stopped at several entry points and sinkholes (swallette) along the way.
