REGULATORY DETAILS COULD BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN TARGETS IN ORDER TO REACH ZERO BY 2050

DETAIL INFORMATION

The International Maritime Organisation (IMO) is making modest progress and paying little attention to efforts to control emissions from the manufacture of fuel and take into account other greenhouse gases (GHGs), not only CO2. However, these regulatory specifics likely carry more weight than the attention-grabbing plan to achieve net-zero GHG emissions by 2050. This is why.

The worldwide shipping industry is responsible for 3% and increasing of the total GHG emissions. Large oceangoing container ships, tankers, and bulk carriers that transport completed goods, raw materials, minerals, and food throughout the world are mostly responsible for these pollution. There are currently policies in place to reduce this increase in emissions, but the specifics of how they take effect are crucial. In this post, we look at these specifics and why they're important.
