Cardozo Journal of International and Comparative Law
Abstract
The note contrasts Denmark's successful energy policy with the United States' less effective approach, arguing that Denmark's sustained, broad-based strategy—featuring strict enforcement, tax incentives, and community involvement—offers a model for the U.S. to reduce oil dependency and promote renewable energy. The analysis emphasizes the importance of consistent policy measures and the integration of environmental and social costs into energy pricing to achieve long-term economic and environmental benefits.
