Our history as a species includes innumerable tiny vessels pushed by wind across great expanses of featureless ocean, bold explorers and traders risking all on the science of sextants and the vagaries of the weather. But in recent … [continued]

For three years, the International Chamber of Shipping has been running a survey of ship owners, covering multiple domains, including biggest risks to shipping, changes in shipping patterns with initiatives like friendshoring and most relevantly for this discussion, decarbonization. Recently they dropped their 2023-2024 survey, and the results indicate ongoing … [continued]

Recently I published on the International Maritime Organization’s commitment to introduce carbon pricing for all maritime shipping in 2028. One of the comments echoed something I’d seen elsewhere, the odd premise that this would drive freight to much higher emissions airplanes, and hence be counterproductive from a climate perspective. The … [continued]

In my regularly iterated Short List of Climate Actions That Will Work, there’s a big broom: Price Carbon Aggressively. In the maritime shipping world, it would be a big trawler net that scoops up emissions regardless of technology, allowing the market to figure out the cheapest way to achieve decarbonization. … [continued]

Freight logistics are going to be transforming over the coming years, and electrification is the primary wedge. It’s not only climate-friendly, but ports that take this path sooner rather than later will end up more competitive as global shipping declines. Electrification is a path to being a winning port in … [continued]
