GPB'S mission is to help environmental change makers identify their legal needs and connect them with the free legal services necessary for their success.With the negative effects of climate change continuously increasing, there is an urgent need for environmental education; protection of natural landscapes; and scaling of clean energy. Our client organizations tackle these critical issues, and lawyers from our pro bono network solve legal challenges that enable them to implement their groundbreaking green solutions. GPB brings our clients and our pro bono network together. The connections that we build expedite the missions of our clients by providing vital legal assistance as they work to implement renewable, affordable, and clean energy; find avenues to be more energy efficient; protect rainforests and sustainable uses of land; and offer other innovative ideas to combat climate change.Throughout our varied careers, GPB’s internal team members have all shown a dedication to environmental justice and using the law as a tool to benefit the public interest. We recognize that the need for legal support is, in many cases, an obstacle that prevents innovative fields from becoming more diverse. However, we know that more than enough pro bono support exists to fill these gaps if only the connections can be made. We strongly believe that with dedicated outreach and facilitation of these connection opportunities, the possibilities for growth and global change are endless.
