Singapore port authority launches $90 mln decarbonisation fund

By Reuters Staff 3 Min Read SINGAPORE, April 21 (Reuters) - The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) announced two initiatives on Wednesday to reduce the shipping industry’s greenhouse gas emissions, including a S$120 million ($90 million) fund for a decarbonisation centre. “Maritime decarbonisation is a global challenge requiring a collective responsibility from all stakeholders involved,” MPA Chief Executive Quah Ley Hoon said in a statement. With about 90% of world trade transported by sea, shipping accounts for nearly 3% of the world’s carbon dioxide emissions. The industry is examining a range of technologies as it tries to meet the International Maritime Organization target of a 50% cut in greenhouse gas emissions from 2008 levels by 2050.

More than 200,000 seafarers stranded due to Covid-19 pandemic: International Maritime Organisation

SINGAPORE - More than 200,000 seafarers worldwide are either still stranded on ships or waiting to board them as the coronavirus pandemic continues to rage on, secretary-general of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) Kitack Lim said on Friday (April 23). While things have gotten better since the start of the year, these maritime workers, who do not have the luxury of working from home, need to be recognised as key workers and be vaccinated so they can move across borders, he added. At the same time, Mr Lim said their plight should also motivate the industry to do more to digitalise their operations. This, in turn, will make shipping more efficient and reduce both unnecessary wait time and emissions.
