| 摘要： | The maritime industry and its role in the transport of oil, gas and agriculture products as well as the long-desired "energy transition" were major topics of discussion at the New Orleans Marine Finance Forum, held November 30 at the Four Seasons Hotel, where Canal Street meets the Mississippi River. While maritime industry leaders were unequivocal in their support for improving their efficiencies, reducing fuel consumption throughout the fleet and lowering emissions, many executives also emphasized the maritime industry's inherent "green" operations and stressed that initiatives like wind energy have a long way to go before they are economically feasible for maritime companies. Early on, Marine Finance Forum attendees were introduced to the Blue Sky Maritime Coalition, a group whose members are committed to moving waterborne transportation in the United States and Canada toward net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. The coalitions president and executive director, David Cummins, explained that the group started with an end goal of net-zero greenhouse gas emissions in the maritime field by 2050 and worked its way back to strategize how to get there. |
