Container Supply Chain Programme 'Sustainability Day' Wednesday 19th October / 10:00 - 11:00 GMT-5
With growing pressure for the sector to reduce its carbon emissions and meet the IMO’s net zero goal by 2050, the need for a harmonized regulatory framework that enables decarbonisation becomes more apparent. Yet, the question that remains unanswered is how to navigate through this process without leaving anyone behind or penalizing industry players that may find more challenging to meet these targets. In this regard, legislation plays a pivotal role in setting a clear scenario that allows all industry players -not just the leaders –to design effective and realistic decarbonisation initiatives. A better understanding of the regulatory framework for maritime decarbonisation will transform challenges into opportunities.
