Annual Global Conference on Taxation

The annual Global Conferences on Environmental Taxation provide an international, interdisciplinary forum for legal scholars, economists, political scientists, environmentalists, government officials, representatives of the private sector, and others to exchange the latest research on the use of fiscal and other economic instruments to achieve environmental policy objectives.

Peer-reviewed papers from the conference are published in Critical Issues in Environmental Taxation, a book series that now contains 12 volumes. For information about the book series, please visit the Edward Elgar website.

Environmental Tax Policy Institute Director, Janet Milne, is a member of the three-person steering committee for the conference series and a co-editor of the Critical Issues book series. If you have questions about the conferences or would like to be added to the conference mailing list, please contact Professor Milne at jmilne@vermontlaw.edu.
