The maritime world is undergoing rapid change, with alternative fuels and new digital technologies gaining traction as the IMO and EU-led decarboni-zation deadlines approach. While a lot of focus is placed on developed nations that are not only technologically advanced but also have more generous budgets to support the transition, it is vital that developing countries and small island nations are given support and the resources to undertake the journey themselves. This is not only because fighting climate change is a global issue that reguires a united response, but also because a just transition requires an equitable allocation of resources - an important factor given that developing countries are less responsible for the creation of global emissions. In addition, digitalization and optimization can have a greater impact in developing countries, which are heavily reliant on manual labor. |
