Both recipients were honored last night at a ceremony on the Stanford campus.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 30px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;" helvetica="Helvetica" neue="Neue" arial="Arial" sans-serif="sans-serif" background-color="background-color" rgb="rgb">The National Public Service Award is designated for an attorney whose work on behalf of the public has had national impact, and the Alumni Public Service Award is given annually to a Stanford Law School alumnus/a who has similarly engaged in public service and had a significant impact on the nation or community. The recipients were chosen by a committee of students, alumni, and faculty that included former Secretary of State Warren Christopher ’49; William Neukom ’67, president of the American Bar Association; Larry Kramer, Richard E. Lang Professor of Law and Dean; Lawrence C. Marshall, David & Stephanie Mills Director of Clinical Education and Associate Dean for Public Service and Clinical Education; and Susan J. Feathers, executive director of the Levin Center for Public Service and Public Interest Law.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 30px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;" helvetica="Helvetica" neue="Neue" arial="Arial" sans-serif="sans-serif" background-color="background-color" rgb="rgb">David Doniger, policy director of the Natural Resources Defense Council’s (NRDC) Climate Center, was honored for his pathbreaking work on Massachusetts v. EPA, the landmark April 2007 Supreme Court decision that found carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are air pollutants subject to regulation under the Clean Air Act. In addition to playing a pivotal role in designing legal strategy and drafting briefs for the case, Doniger kept a 30-member coalition of states, cities, and environmental groups on course for four years through litigation before the D.C. Circuit and the Supreme Court. He is also the lead environmental lawyer in related cases defending California’s landmark standards for motor vehicle emissions of greenhouse gases, and has led NRDC’s effort to craft sound national global warming legislation. His concepts, published in Science last November, have found their way into the leading climate proposals introduced in the 110th Congress.<p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 30px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;" helvetica="Helvetica" neue="Neue" arial="Arial" sans-serif="sans-serif" background-color="background-color" rgb="rgb">
