The death of a lawyer: A journey from law school to retirement
Douglas Halpert.
On some mornings, fog shrouds the Ohio River, settling into the river valley like loosely applied caulk. Twenty-three years ago, while on my way to work, my car weaved through the thick, shape-shifting strands as I navigated Kellogg Avenue, which follows the contours of the river toward downtown Cincinnati.
It was then that I noticed a cluster of turkey vultures astride a deer on the right side of the road. They clung tenaciously to its carcass as their impossibly large, pitch-black wings flapped in the wind. As my car approached, one of the birds tore off a piece of venison and consumed it as it lifted off.
Afternoon Briefs: Biden addresses environmental justice; scammers impersonate law firm
Biden climate orders address environmental justice
President Joe Biden on Wednesday signed executive orders to address climate change. Biden paused oil and gas leases on federal land and created a White House office of domestic climate policy. Biden addressed environmental justice with a directive for federal agencies to invest in disadvantaged communities that historically have been overburdened by pollution. He also created a White House environmental justice interagency council and a White House environmental justice advisory council.
