Law Technology News is providing its readers some awareness of an environmental project underway on the campus of the headquarters of Thomson Reuters, Legal.

An LTN article titled “Prairie, Flowering: Restoring 10 acres of Minnesota with native grass and wildflowers” provides details of an effort that we wrote about here, last month.

The article, written by Legal Current contributor Nicole Hansen, explains the process to prepare the land in Eagan, Minnesota that was set aside for the prairie restoration, and the overall committment of the company to green initiatives:

Environmental stewardship isn’t a new concept for Thomson Reuters, Legal. Our predecessor company, West Publishing, began recycling metal shavings, sheepskin scraps, and paper trimmings left over from platemaking and bookbinding in 1906. Today, our Eagan Green Team offers many employee and corporate programs. More than 100 employees participate in a variety of volunteer subcommittees, focusing on organic gardening, recycling, and bird habitats around the campus.

You can read the entire article in LTN for more information. And you can see more photos from the prairie planting on our Flickr page.
