  <course-description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Objectives:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;To provide an introduction to key aspects of US environmental law because of its profound influence on Australian environmental law over the last forty years&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Content:&lt;/strong&gt; This course will look at key pieces of US legislation &amp;ndash; the National Environmental Policy Act, Clean Water Act, Endangered Species Act and &amp;lsquo;Superfund&amp;rsquo; Act &amp;ndash; and consider the American response to Kyoto. In doing so, it will not only examine the legislation and case law but also explore larger debates about federalism, regulation and enforcement and relate this American experience to Australian law.&lt;/p&gt;</course-description>
