Abstract
The American Bar Association (ABA) partnered with other bar associations to encourage climate-conscious lawyering at the recently concluded international climate conference in Egypt. The ABA participated in first-ever events with the International Bar Association (IBA), the Brazilian Bar Association (OAB), and the Law Society of England and Wales (LSEW) on their roles and the role of lawyers generally in addressing climate change. This was the 27th annual meeting of the Conference of the Parties to the U.N. Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP27).
