Description: Shipping’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the associated climate impact are currently subject to
intense debate within the International Maritime Organisation (IMO). Its member countries decided in 2016
to develop an Initial IMO Greenhouse Gas Strategy by 2018 and a Revised Strategy in 2023. This Strategy is
supposed to define an ambition for GHG mitigation in maritime transport, which includes targets, guiding
principles and candidate measures to reach these targets. Although global regulation on mandatory energy
efficiency standards in shipping was introduced in 2013, various studies project shipping’s GHG emissions
to grow if additional measures are not taken. For example, the official IMO GHG study foresees an increase
of shipping’s GHG emissions of 50-250% by 2050 (Smith et al. 2014).
The 2015 Paris Climate Agreement formulated clear ambitions for mitigating GHG emissions. This
included a long-term goal of keeping the increase in global average temperature to well below 2°C above
pre-industrial levels; to aim to limit the increase to 1.5°C; and for global emissions to peak as soon as
possible. Although shipping is not explicitly excluded from the Paris Climate Agreement, one could argue on
the extent to which it is actually covered by it. The Agreement does not mention international shipping and –
considering that international shipping is a global activity – countries have not included the sector in their
Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) that form the backbone of the Paris Agreement.
