ClientEarth home

I believe that ClientEarth plays an essential role in protecting the planet and its people against corporate interests, especially in the current political climate. To protect and preserve the world as we know it today, a global transition to clean energy is needed and I am very grateful for the opportunity to work in a team of such talented individuals that uses law to accelerate this transition.
