Stewardship of Natural Resources and Reduction of Adverse Environmental Impacts

Resource and Energy Conservation
Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal LLP will strive to substantially reduce our consumption of non-renewable natural resources and energy associated with our activities. We will strive on a continual basis to meet and, where possible, exceed best practices for energy and natural resource conservation in an office environment.

Waste and Pollution Prevention and Management
We will reduce, to the maximum extent practicable, the quantity and degree of hazard of the wastes we generate from our operations, and handle them in a safe, legal, and responsible way to minimize their environmental effects. We will reduce, to the maximum extent practicable, the direct and indirect emissions of greenhouse gases and other harmful air pollutants from our operations and travel and will vigorously pursue opportunities to become carbon-neutral.

Reduction of Supply Chain Impacts
We will work with others in our supply chain to help assure adverse environmental impacts and risks associated with our operations are minimized and properly controlled, and environmental benefits optimized.

Integration and Synergy
We will administer this policy in a manner that seeks to enhance and complement our commitments to client service, diversity, pro bono, community service and social responsibility.

Continual Improvement and Leadership
We will administer this policy in a manner that seeks to place and maintain our Firm in a position of leadership in our profession and communities. We will seek opportunities to innovate and to test leading-edge programs. We will review our policy and practices on a regular basis, always seeking to improve our performance.
