In our upcoming #5QuestionsWithMaxwell interview, we highlight Jessica Crow, independent arbitrator and Co-Chair of the Innovation and Policy Taskforce of the Campaign for Greener Arbitrations: The Green Pledge (CGA). Jessica shares sustainable practices she incorporates into her work as an arbitrator, and her perspectives on how arbitration will evolve in the context of global energy transition. She also shares valuable insights for the arbitration community, on ways to contribute to a greener future and discusses the role of technology in advancing sustainable practices.      📌 SIMPLE SUSTAINABLE HABITS - Digital systems and AI is the new era. Adopting a paperless arbitration approach provides significant convenience, effectiveness for arbitrators who frequently travel and manage substantial amounts of paperwork.      📌 INCREASE IN DISPUTES RELATING TO ENERGY – Be prepared. We are seeing an increase in disputes due to the rising global energy transition. There will be a knock-on effect to existing commercial relationships, asset valuations and much more.    📌DRIVING PROGRESS TOWARDS SUSTAINABILITY IN ARBITRATION – By adopting technologies in arbitration practices that facilitate remote hearings and electronic document management, the community can reduce the carbon footprint of arbitration proceedings while increasing efficiency. In fact, many of the major institutions have, or are in the process of instituting climate-related considerations.     To read more of her interview, click here: https://lnkd.in/gCQBzRmH   #5QuestionsWithMaxwell is an interview series, in line with our #MaxwellGoesGreen sustainability program, to find arbitrators who are actively changing their habits and to share their knowledge on green and sustainable practices in the arbitration community.
