A pro bono initiative to promote clauses in legal contracts that will help deliver action on climate change has been launched by Thomson Reuters Legal.
The Chancery Lane Project is collaborating with 690 legal professionals and 147 law firms and other organisations, and hopes to encourage others to join. It provides model clauses for corporations to use. Examples include incentives mechanisms to encourage sustainable practices within supply chain contracts, and employment contract clauses requiring employers to offer employees the chance to participate in climate change awareness training.
