Four changes would make the IMO Net-Zero Framework more effective
On April 11, the International Maritime Organization’s 83rd Marine Environment Protection Committee approved regulations under the IMO Net-Zero Framework. To make the framework effective, the IMO should address four key issues in its Life-Cycle Assessment Guidelines before full implementation in 2028. Otherwise, the framework risks promoting cheap-but-high-emitting fuels that could increase maritime GHG emissions.
