Lincoln College, founded in 1427, is one of the thirty-eight colleges forming Oxford University. The purpose of the meeting is to present papers and engage discussion of recent developments in Environmental Regulation. The title of the conference is: Factors Affecting Climate Change and International Governmental Regulatory Responsibility Conference issues include, but are not limited to: *Climate Change: Research and Proofs *BP Gulf Oil Disaster: The Consequences *The Greening of the WTO: Developing a Rules-Based Framework to Promote Conservation and Free Trade *The Implications of the 2008 Financial Crisis for Protection of the Environment *Poverty and Pollution – The Dark Side of Globalization *Global Management of Climate Change: The Aftermath of Copenhagen *Moving into Position: India, China and the Controversy over Global Warming Should you accept this invitation, you will be joined on the programme by: Dr. Yehia Khalil, Ph.D., Professor of Chemical and Environmental Engineering, Yale University You are invited and encouraged to make a presentation and to provide a paper on a relevant aspect of the topic. If you wish to present a paper, you should so indicate when you respond to this letter. Thereafter, you will be requested to submit an abstract for review by the Programme Committee. Papers presented at the Round Table may be subsequently submitted for publication in the Forum, a journal of the Oxford Round Table. The Forum on Public Policy is published in both hard copy and on-line formats. Papers considered for publication in the Forum are evaluated by peer reviewers as to technical and substantive quality and for potential to make a significant contribution to new knowledge in the field. Papers may also lend themselves to publication as an edited book. A well-regarded book of Round Table papers titled Climate Change and Sustainable Development, edited by Ruth A. Reck, Ph.D., Professor of Air, Land and Water Resources, University of California, Davis, Linton Atlantic Books, Ltd. was published in 2010. You will have living accommodations in Lincoln College in the University of Oxford. Cost of participation in the Round Table, including room and meals, is borne by the invitee or the invitee’s institution or organization. The fee of $2940 covers registration, lodging for five nights, breakfast, lunch, and dinner each day (except for a free evening on Wednesday). The only additional expenses not covered in the registration fee are airfare and costs for transportation between Oxford and the airport.
