Meinhard Doelle
Professor of Law, and Associate Dean, Research, Schulich School of Law, Dalhousie University, Director, Marine & Environmental Law Institute
I specialize in environmental and energy law, with a focus on climate change, regulatory approaches, and environmental assessment processes. I have been involved in the practice of environmental law in Nova Scotia since 1990 and in that capacity served as drafter of the NS Environment Act.
From 2000 to 2006, I was a non-governmental member of the Canadian delegation to the UN climate change negotiations. From January to May 2008, I was a visiting scholar at the Environmental Law Center of the IUCN in Bonn, Germany. I served on the Tidal Energy Strategic Environmental Assessment in 2007, the Lower Churchill Joint Federal-Provincial Review Panel from 2009 – 2011, and the provincial panel on aquaculture from 2013 - 2014.
I have written on a variety of environmental law topics, including climate change, energy, invasive species, environmental assessments, and public participation in environmental decision-making. My most recent book projects include “Environmental Law: Cases and Materials” (2013), “Promoting Compliance in an Evolving Climate Regime” (2012), “The Federal Environmental Assessment Process, a Guide and Critique" (2009), and "From Hot Air to Action: Climate Change, Compliance and the Future of International Environmental Law" (2005).
