Trademark ID Manual is Updated to Include Green Technology

As part of the effort among federal agencies to reduce the impacts of climate change, the United States Patent and Trademark Office is adding new terms to the Trademark ID Manual.  Those new terms will cover goods and services in connection with climate change, including green technology.  Trademark applicants offering green technology will be able to file their application using TEAS Plus, which provides for a reduced application fee.  Thus far, the updated list includes 75 new terms.
