The container shipping industry was left scrambling as businesses around the world were forced to close, causing major supply chain issues.<\/p>\n<p>Then quickly they were dealing with another challenge: unprecedented global demand for goods. Prices for container shipping have skyrocketed in response to rising demand and supply chain bottlenecks. The stranding of a huge container ship in the Suez canal in March this year also drove up shipping costs, said Diane Gilpin, CEO of the Smart Green Shipping Alliance, which develops technological solutions to help the shipping industry decarbonise.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt shows us how brittle the supply chains are, with ripples of such an event going on for months and months,\u201d said Gilpin, adding that ships are burning more fuel as they have been travelling faster to meet demand. \u201cThe container industry is going to make a hundred billion dollars this year. Are we going to invest that in the environment?\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Cleaning up shipping<\/h2>\n<p>There is an urgent need for the shipping industry to clean up its act. Ships emit around one <a href=\"https:\/\/theicct.org\/sites\/default\/files\/publications\/Global-shipping-GHG-emissions-2013-2015_ICCT-Report_17102017_vF.pdf\">billion tonnes of greenhouse gases every year<\/a>, or 3% of global emissions. According to the World Economic Forum, if shipping were a country it would be the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2018\/04\/if-shipping-were-a-country-it-would-be-the-world-s-sixth-biggest-greenhouse-gas-emitter\">sixth largest<\/a> polluter in the world. Without further action, shipping emissions are expected to reach <a href=\"https:\/\/www.climatechangenews.com\/2020\/08\/04\/major-ship-emissions-study-flags-bigger-role-governments\/\">90-130%<\/a> of their 2008 levels by 2050.<\/p>\n<div class='block--pullout-stat block--pullout-stat--float cd-shortcode--factbox'>\n                <p class='block--pullout-stat__title'>6th<\/p>\n                <div class='block--pullout-stat__content'>\n                    <br \/>\nShipping would be the sixth largest polluter in the world if it were a country.<br \/>\n\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<p>While governments around the world have pledged a green recovery from the pandemic, shipping experts are not holding their breath. The shipping debate has \u201clanguished\u201d since the Kyoto Protocol in 1997, which set targets for countries to reduce their carbon emissions, said Tristan Smith, an expert in shipping and energy at University College London\u2019s Energy Institute.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s absurd that governments have left it this long. Current policies are completely inadequate [to tackle] the scale of the climate crisis,\u201d said Smith.<\/p>\n<p>Shipping emissions were excluded from the Paris Agreement in 2015 because they are difficult to allocate to individual countries. This leaves regulating shipping emissions in the hands of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the UN body responsible for shipping.<\/p>\n<h2>Stalling shipping negotiations<\/h2>\n<p>The IMO has long been criticised for failing to address the urgency of the climate crisis, introducing weak measures that will do little to curb emissions.<\/p>\n<p>Under pressure from small island states threatened by rising sea levels, the IMO set a goal in 2018 of <a href=\"https:\/\/wwwcdn.imo.org\/localresources\/en\/OurWork\/Environment\/Documents\/Resolution%20MEPC.304(72)_E.pdf\">bringing emissions down by at least 50% by 2050<\/a>, compared to 2008 levels.<\/p>\n<p>But since then campaigners have accused the organisation of kicking the can down the road with ineffectual short-term measures. At the latest IMO meeting in June, member states agreed to reduce carbon intensity from ships by 2% every year between 2023 and 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Bryan Comer, senior marine researcher at the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT), said the measure \u201cdoesn\u2019t bend the emissions curve\u201d and is equivalent to business as usual. <a href=\"https:\/\/theicct.org\/blog\/staff\/imo-carbon-intensity-target-may2021\">According to ICCT analysis<\/a>, a 6\u20137% annual reduction in carbon intensity is needed to be compatible with a 1.5C global warming limit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe longer we wait, the steeper the trajectory. In a few years 10% is going to be needed,\u201d said Comer.<\/p>\n<p>The pandemic also hindered negotiations and temporarily slowed down decision-making. \u201cWe lost eight months of progress,\u201d said Comer.<\/p>\n<p>One of the most contentious issues that keeps surfacing at IMO meetings is whether the industry should introduce a carbon tax to tackle its climate impact.<\/p>\n<p>At the June meeting, Pacific Island nations, which are particularly threatened by rising seas and other climate impacts, called for a carbon price of $100 per tonne on bunker fuels. Emerging economies, such as South Africa and India, opposed the measure, while EU countries have called for carbon pricing in some form but did not endorse the Pacific Islands\u2019 proposal.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the International Chamber of Shipping, which represents shipowners, has put forward a proposal for a tax of $2 per tonne of bunker fuel, which works out at just $0.7 per tonne of CO2 emitted. The tax would be used to fund research and development projects worth $5 billion over the next decade.<br \/>\n<div class='cdo-shortcode--image'><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18179\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18179\" style=\"width: 2000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18179 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Maersk-the-worlds-largest-container-shipping-company_32b9e1e132_k-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Maersk, the world's largest container shipping company\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18179\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Among others, Maersk, the world's largest container shipping company, has suggested a carbon tax on fuel to help the industry move away from fossil fuels (Image: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/mussikatz\/\">Mussi Katz<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/mussikatz\/50202843282\/in\/photolist-2jufGgu\">Flickr<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/publicdomain\/zero\/1.0\/\">CC0 1.0<\/a>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/div><\/p>\n<p>Maersk has called for a levy of $150 per tonne of CO2 to help the industry shift away from fossil fuels.<\/p>\n<p>A carbon tax would help \u201clevel the playing field,\u201d said Comer. \u201cCurrently, the [price] gap between running a ship on zero emissions fuels and fossil fuels is pretty large \u2013 the economics don\u2019t make sense.\u201d But it is \u201cpolitically difficult\u201d for governments to set a carbon tax, especially for developing countries who argue that it will make exports more expensive, he said.<\/p>\n<h2>Green technology<\/h2>\n<p>Slashing shipping emissions requires new technology, vessels and fuels. Replacing fossil fuels with hydrogen, which does not produce any carbon dioxide or sulfur oxides when burned, is one of the most promising solutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInternational shipping needs hydrogen fuels. They have scalable production, no shortage of renewable electricity capacity [to produce them] and are cost competitive. But we are a couple of years away from the technology being available,\u201d said Smith.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have to get over the innovation hump,\u201d said Gilpin. \u201cMany shipowners are concerned about climate change and want to do something but the lack of political structure makes it really difficult.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Attracting funding remains an enormous challenge. \u201cFinanciers expect to see returns on their investments within a timeframe we cannot deliver,\u201d said Gilpin, noting that new shipping technology and fuels will not come to market within a year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe shipping industry has been pushed into a corner and is looking for innovation but nobody wants to be the first mover in making changes when there is no infrastructure,\u201d said John Kartsonas, founder of Breakwave Advisors, which offers asset management services to the shipping industry.<\/p>\n<p>The sustainability push within capital markets that drove the vehicle industry to innovate and produce electric cars is missing for ship owners, Kartsonas said. \u201cIn shipping, most of the push came through regulations, the IMO regulations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite all this rhetoric, there is no money to do any of it,\u201d said Gilpin.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than making the giant leap to building low-carbon ships, owners should focus on retrofitting their bulkers and tankers with sails to help them slash emissions, she said.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/static1.squarespace.com\/static\/54e49287e4b062d0771142f2\/t\/5e1dc8e5db2c3e0f989e5485\/1579010279074\/Innovate+UK+-+Project+Summary+Report.pdf\">A pilot project carried out by Smart Green Shipping<\/a> found that a cargo ship could save 20% in fuel every year when fitted with automated, retractable steel and aluminium sails, on a voyage from Baton Rouge to Liverpool.<br \/>\n<div class='cdo-shortcode--image'><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18183\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18183\" style=\"width: 1920px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18183 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/dialogue.earth\/content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/Wallenius_Marines_Oceanbird_ship_concept.jpg\" alt=\"Concept vessels Oceanbird \" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18183\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Concept vessels may within the next decade use retractable sails to substantially lower the CO2 emissions of container shipping (Image: <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Wallenius_Marine%27s_Oceanbird_ship_concept.jpg\">Wallenius Marine<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/4.0\/deed.en\"><span class=\"cc-license-identifier\">CC BY-SA 4.0<\/span><\/a>)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><\/div><\/p>\n<p>When there are more success stories, \u201cthe market will show more confidence,\u201d said Gilpin.<\/p>\n<h2>Clean shipping on the horizon?<\/h2>\n<p>Despite the lack of leadership from the IMO, governments are ramping up their climate ambition around shipping.<\/p>\n<p>The UK, which is hosting the COP26 climate talks in November, said it would include emissions from international aviation and shipping for the first time in its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/news\/uk-enshrines-new-target-in-law-to-slash-emissions-by-78-by-2035#:~:text=change%20and%20energy-,UK%20enshrines%20new%20target%20in%20law,emissions%20by%2078%25%20by%202035&amp;text=The%20UK's%20sixth%20Carbon%20Budget,to%20net%20zero%20by%202050.\">sixth carbon budget<\/a>, which sets out legal five-year targets under the Climate Change Act.<\/p>\n<p>As the host of COP26, the UK is in a strong position to highlight the need for global action on shipping emissions, said Smith.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile the EU has pledged to crack down on polluting ships by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.europarl.europa.eu\/news\/en\/press-room\/20200910IPR86825\/parliament-says-shipping-industry-must-contribute-to-climate-neutrality\">voting<\/a> to include maritime CO2 emissions in its emissions trading scheme from 2022.<\/p>\n<p>From the start of next year, shipowners will be forced to buy carbon permits to cover emissions during voyages in Europe and international voyages that start or finish at a European port.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe continue to see the EU making faster progress than the IMO and now the US is starting to show climate leadership,\u201d said Comer. <strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The US included shipping emissions for the first time in its <a href=\"https:\/\/www4.unfccc.int\/sites\/ndcstaging\/PublishedDocuments\/United%20States%20of%20America%20First\/United%20States%20NDC%20April%2021%202021%20Final.pdf\">updated climate plan<\/a>, which it submitted to the UN in April.
