Tree-huggers, board advisers,
contract shapers: The lawyers
leading the way for nature.
Lawyers are shaking off the
profession’s dusty old image, as
they join campaigners to protect
the planet and find creative ways to
transform business as usual. From
ensuring company boardrooms
defer to ‘Mother Nature’, to
defending the rights of trees, to
future-proofing contracts: legal
experts aren’t waiting around for
governments to make the sweeping
changes we need. But, as the
pressure mounts to act decisively
on climate change, how do
lawyers balance professionalism
and progress?
Against the odds: The growing
green businesses of the Middle East.
Running a healthy business that
helps both people and planet is
already a big ask. Add sky-high
inflation, unbearable heat, instability
and even outright war, and the task
would feel impossible to most. But,
for the pioneers of green business
in Palestine, Lebanon and Egypt,
sticking to the mission just makes
good business sense. Championed
by some steadfast supporters, they’re
surviving and growing through the
most volatile of times.
