Managing Carbon Emissions and GHGs in Shipping

New conference for 2010: Managing Carbon Emissions and GHGs in Shipping: Essential information for managing shipping's carbon footprint

The debate on shipping’s contribution to worldwide carbon emissions is becoming increasingly important, as possible solutions are discussed in international meetings and within governments.  Results from these meetings could have a long-term impact on the way shipping operaes and the impact of these developments will be the central theme of this invaluable conference.


Informa Maritime Events are pleased to present this conference on managing carbon emissions and GHGs in shipping which will examine the various proposals and findings being discussed to manage and limit these emissions. Leading experts will discuss and analyse critical developments including:


What shipping has done so far to ameliorate the impact of GHGs and what remains to be done?


- Examine how the carbon trading market works in other industries and how it might work for international shipping


- Hear details of the proposal for an international contribution fund for greenhouse gas emissions from ships


- Analyse the energy efficiency design index and the energy efficiency operational indicator in detail


- Look ahead at potential alternative fuels, what is available and what is on the horizon
