Decarbonizing in Maritime Transportation: Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract: As global warming caused by greenhouse gases grows (GHGs) into a global environmental threat, carbon dioxide emissions are drawing increasing attention in these years. Among all emission sources, transportation is a major contributor to climate change because of its high dependence on fossil fuels. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has therefore been promoting the reduction of fuel usage and carbon emissions for container ships by such measures as improving shipping route selection, shipping speed … Show more

“…The expansion of maritime traffic continues to solidify its status as the primary mode of global goods transportation, especially for long-distance shipments, which constitute a significant portion of world trade. This enduring prosperity, spanning centuries, has propelled water transportation to encompass nearly 90% of global trade [1,2]. The escalating threat of global warming, induced by greenhouse gases (GHG), is emerging as a critical environmental concern on a global scale.…”
