[Second Edition] Maxwell Chambers - Greensquare: Textile Donation Drive #MaxwellGoesGreen initiative
2024-10-14 - 2024-10-27 | Singapore
Event Details
[Second Edition] Let’s Recycle – Give your clothes and household textiles a second life.
Did you know that an estimated 95% of all clothing, shoes, and other fabrics can be recycled in a textile recycling operation?
As part of our #MaxwellGoesGreen initiative, be part of our second Textile Donation Drive, in partnership with Greensquare. The collection point will be at Maxwell Chambers Suites from 14 October to 30 November 2024.
Based on statistics shared by the National Environment Agency, Singapore generated more than 254,000 tonnes of textile and leather waste, but only 2% of such waste was recycled in 2022. In comparism, 6% of such waste was recycled in 2016 and 4% in 2021.
Let us do our part to keep textiles in a closed recycling loop to help:

conserve natural resources (E.g. it takes 6,813 litres/1,800 gallons of water to grow enough cotton to make just one pair of jeans)

reduce environmental pollution (as we reduce the waste going to the incineration plant and landfill)

facilitate economical pricing for clothes and foot wear (for use in developing countries)

What can you donate?

Q&A from the Lecture:
Q1: What are the potential challenges in the future for issuing arbitral awards? Are there any changes in environment or technology that may mitigate or worsen these challenges?
Q2: What aspects of arbitration are ready for AI?
Q3: What do you think are the key issues that need to be considered when using technology?
Q4: About diversity, I notice that the ICC now has an almost 50/50 male/female mix. Is this too fast and too artificial?
Q5: For operating with ICC arbitration, since the publishing of the ICC arbitration rules 2021 in the year of 2021, which part of the arbitration rules 2021 would ICC suggest multi-national companies, future expert witnesses, future party representatives and future arbitrators to pay attention to as per ICC’s observation so far?
Q6: What would ICC like expert witnesses, party representatives, and arbitrators to do (and prepare themselves) in order to operate ICC arbitration in line with ICC’s vision?
