About OhioGreenStrategies.com
Bricker & Eckler LLP formed our
Green Strategies Group in 2007 to serve our clients’ diverse and
evolving needs relating to climate change, sustainability, green design and
construction, sustainable real estate development, the implementation of clean
and renewable energy technologies, energy generation and efficiency
opportunities, and the national and regional emission credit trading markets.
Since the Green Strategies Group’s creation, group members have regularly
published Green
Strategies Bulletins, which provide our clients, friends, and
interested members of industry and the broader business community with the most
important current developments in these evolving areas of policy, regulation,
industry and society. As the amount of information and opportunities relating
to Green Strategies issues continues to expand exponentially, we determined
that a blog would be an effective tool to provide readers with the most current
information about developing Green Strategies issues and opportunities in Ohio
and nationally. The Ohio Green Strategies Blog will complement our
ongoing efforts to keep readers informed by providing short summaries, links,
and other resources that allows readers quickly learn what’s new as well as
access additional information to learn more.
