Answer 1

You will just have to become a lawyer for an environmental group wherever you choose to practice. . . You will not get paid much, but you will keep busy with people getting arrested and doing some wild stuff to save different sectors of the environment. . .  Good luck to you!!!  I think you have choosen a very admirable path for the legal field :)

Addendum:  I have several lawyers in my family, and my cousin that works mostly pro bono for various organizations does not make that much money, and does not care, because he is living his dream and doing what he wants in life by helping others and not worrying about the almighty dollar :)  Yes, there are "environmental friendly" corporations out there that do pay their attorneys very well.  But I also know that is a tough market to get into. . . Anyway, you have to do what you feel is right for yourself!!!

The best of luck to you!!! Again. . . :)

Answer 3

Greengroveinc doesn't know what he's talking about. Or at the very least he is making a big assumption about what you want to do. Most environmental lawyers work for/with industry and can make quite a bit of money.
