Going Green

      It seems we are all looking for ways to save energy and help the environment. Although law firms don’t consume as large amounts of resources as some industries, at Lewis & Daggett we are continuing to try to do our part.

      Maybe you have seen part of our efforts around the Triad! Above is our L & D "Green" Errand Machine. We run a lot of errands and make a lot of public service and client convenience visits. Our hybrid vehicle saves on fuel, is fun, and helps remind others to try to be efficient.

      When we first looked into doing more toward Going Green, we wanted to focus on areas that have the biggest impact. Those areas include reducing our trips, saving electricity, and recycling.

      One thing that law firms use lots of is paper. We are truly a paper pushing business. For several years we have been recycling all of our used paper. We have an outside shredding and recycling service that comes twice a month to empty our five large recycling bins. Of course this also helps us keep confidential information confidential.

       We are also making a concerted effort to recycle cans and bottles. Again, in this areas there are dual purposes. We have found the children of our L & D team are often involved in recycling efforts to raise money for clubs, events, and causes. We are glad to be helping them along in their efforts.

      Certainly we all have a duty to help the future of our fuel resources and our environment. At L & D we are glad to be a small part in these efforts and look forward to future progressive opportunities and efficiencies. Won’t you join us?
