Today was an especially important day because I got the opportunity to talk to Ms. Robin Smith, an environmental law attorney in Chapel Hill. She and I met at Caribou Coffee in Chapel Hill to discuss what she as an Environmental law attorney does, as well as what the field encompasses. We talked about what she does as an ELA and I learned so much about the field and about what steps it takes to become an individual in her position. We talked about how important EL is and will be in the future because of the increases in technology and increasing need for protection of our world’s natural resources. Overall, it was a fascinating discussion that got me even more interested in pursuing a career in Environmental Law.
