Shipping’s efficiency conundrum is getting harder to solve
SHIPPING has a serious efficiency problem.
There is the obvious uncertainty and chaos within the International Maritime Organization-led decarbonisation plans.
But this is not just a carbon efficiency problem — the current direction of geopolitical drivers generally are making shipping, and global trade, significantly less efficient.
