Opinion / #shipping
While shipping is essential to the global economy, so is reducing the associated pollution. Requiring shipping companies to pay for their vessels’ greenhouse-gas emissions would go a long way toward advancing this objective, while generating much-needed revenues for climate-vulnerable developing countries.
Road emissions are the leading contributor to transport emissions across the Indo-Pacific, surpassing those from shipping and aviation.
The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has one more chance to commit to a 1.5°C future.
As with many common resources, the high seas are not yet protected by a truly comprehensive, agreed-upon framework. But this must change if there is to be any hope of achieving global biodiversity goals.
