How Green Is Your Summer Clerkship?

Amy Burchfield, Access & Faculty Services Librarian amy.burchfield@law.csuohio.edu | April 25, 2008 - 10:45

Earth Day is *officially* over, ho-hum. But summer clerkships are right around the corner, just past exams. I know – the link between the two thoughts seems tenuous, at best.

But actually, those two thoughts are related. The ABA’s Section of Environment, Energy, and Resources is hosting a Law Office Climate Challenge in conjunction with the EPA to encourage law offices to go green. Law offices can participate in three environmentally-friendly programs – WasteWise, Green Power, and ENERGY STAR.

So, is your summer clerkship firm up to the challenge? Find out here on the “Partners and Leaders” list. The Cleveland office of Porter Wright made the cut, as did a couple other Ohio firms. But IMHO, the Buckeye State is fairly under-represented on the Climate Challenge leader board. So could you work on that this summer while you’re clerking? Thnx.
