A Climate Leaders’ Programme project
Michael Stocker (Core Legal Solutions) is looking at ways to empower lawyers in Te Tauihu to provide climate conscious legal advice.
Through greater access to information, resources and peer support around climate issues Michael’s aim is to ultimately strengthen a shared community vision of being Tūpuna Pono (good ancestors).
Most recently Michael, together with a group of lawyers across the region and nationwide, contributed to the development of the New Zealand Climate Clause Bank. The document specifies clauses that can be used in contracts to help reduce the carbon footprint of the parties signing them.
Get in touch to learn more about conscious legal practice or offer your support, or encourage your climate conscious lawyer to do so.
