What can the Clean Air Act—and decades of environmental law—teach us about where the field is headed?

In last week's episode of the SEER100 Podcast Series, Lindsey Simmons and Professor Richard Lazarus of Harvard Law School, author of The Rule of Five, offers a wide-ranging look at the evolution of environmental law and the challenges of applying decades-old statutes to today’s issues, including climate change.

Drawing on his experience before the U.S. Supreme Court and across multiple administrations, Professor Lazarus explores how agencies, courts, and Congress have shaped environmental protection—and what those dynamics mean for the next generation of environmental lawyers.

🎧 If you haven’t listened yet, this is one conversation worth adding to your queue.
