Termination for Greener Supplier

This clause gives customers a right to switch suppliers if the existing supplier is unable to match a ‘greener’ offer from an alternative supplier.

This clause aims to reduce carbon emissions created during disputes..Litigation and arbitration create considerable and unnecessary amounts of physical paperwork and printing. Paper is energy-intensive and has a significant carbon and water footprint. Litigation and arbitration can also require significant travel commitments for parties, lawyers, witnesses and experts (generally by air). Short-haul aviation is one of the most emissions-intensive means of travel.
