Having reduced total CO2 emissions by more than 10% since 2007, the industry is delivering carbon neutral growth, despite a global increase in maritime trade. However, the ICS has announced it will further reduce industry CO2 emissions by 50% by 2050. The ICS will achieve this target through 30% more efficient ships being built after 2025, that will be larger, use better engines with cleaner fuels and smarter speed management.
