The result of this month's poll could not have been clearer: all respondents to the question "if following the lack of progress to determine global market-based measures in the short term, it is right for maritime to proceed with regional emission-reduction measures," replied with yes. The recent IMO Environment Protection Committee (MEPC)78 meeting in June 2022 further discussed a levy-based, as well as, a cap trading system, with a decision on which system to adopt only expected to come in July 2023 at the MEPC80 meeting. Readers therefore favor local solutions that - arguably - put pressure on the maritime regulator, the IMO, to decide on a global solution. |
