This spring, the George Washington University Law School was proud to award Lieutenant Commander Jonathan Dowling, JAGC, USN, (LL.M. ’11), the 2012 Jamie Grodsky Prize for Environmental Law Scholarship. Dowling’s paper, “Improving Energy Security with the Great Green Fleet: The Case for Transitioning from Ethanol to Drop-In Renewable Fuels,” highlights the U.S. Navy’s planned Great Green Fleet, a strike group that will be comprised of nuclear powered carriers and submarines, hybrid electric ships powered by algae-based naval propulsion fuel, and aircraft flying on a blend of camelina-based naval aviation fuel.
