Of interest if you rely on global supply chains (very difficult not to, in todays world), and rely on global shipping for importing or exporting your goods:
Next week, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) will meet to decide the future of global shipping – and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
If IMO leaders agree forward mid-term measures, including a financial mechanism, shipping could become the first industry in the world with a global carbon price.
This would be a game-changer, making shipping the first sector with mandatory global GHG regulations designed to hit net-zero emissions by 2050.
This meeting will affect everyone. To help you understand how it will impact you, Reuters Events: Supply Chain have partnered with World Shipping Council to produce an essential white paper explaining the key factors at play, giving you everything you need to prepare.
