The International Maritime Organization held its latest round of negotiations to discuss how to move forward on the climate regulation of the shipping industry.
Campaigners said growing support for the world’s first-ever global emissions levy meant it was now more likely to be adopted by the IMO next year.
“The UN is on the edge of adopting the world’s first-ever global emissions price, but the policy will only be as successful as countries make it to be,” said Sandra Chiri, shipping emissions international outreach manager at the Ocean Conservancy.
