With November playing host to two significant meetings pertaining to the global journey of emission reductions, COP26 and IMO's MEPC77 meeting, we want to look at voluntary - or even mandatory - measures ports can introduce to expedite this journey. With them being gateways to the world, they also have the opportunity and responsibility to foster sustainable business practices among shipping as well as transport companies. For the November/December edition of P&H, we therefore want to discuss if port authorities should introduce differentiated port dues that are based on the carbon foot print of the fuel a shipping company uses. This is aimed at encouraging low emission fuels and aid with reducing toxic air pollution. |
