Overview

At Womble Bond Dickinson, we take our environmental responsibilities seriously.

By building a sustainable business through partnerships with clients, vendors, community leaders and our internal initiatives, we are determined to play a strong role in creating better places to live and work. 

Climate change is an urgent issue that requires long-term resolve and commitment. We aim to minimize the impact of our operations on the environment and are committed to enhancing our environmental performance and finding ways to improve our environmental management system. 


In that spirit, Womble Bond Dickinson (US) has committed to reaching net zero carbon emissions by 2050. An internal taskforce operating at the direction of the firm’s executive leadership has begun planning our approach for achieving this commitment. We look forward to working with all of our stakeholders in better understanding leading practices and progressive strategies that will inform, enable and accelerate this important aim.
