Speaking at the 4th Shipping and Offshore Corporate and Social Responsibility Forum, the Secretary General of the Global Shippers’ Forum outlined the need for transparency of maritime carbon emissions and interventions, saying it is essential in order that shippers can identify their carbon footprint.
After presenting at the CSR event, Chris Welsh, GSF’s Secretary General said:
“Leading edge shippers, charters and carriers are making substantial progress in establishing common methodologies for measuring, recording and verifying carbon emissions. The drive is led by customers who are calling for greater transparency in carbon emissions data to benchmark the energy efficiency of carriers so that they cannot only identify their supply chain emissions, but also to take appropriate interventions to reduce supply chain carbon emissions.”
Entitled ‘Driving Transformation through the value chain – the demand for CSR by Shippers’ the GSF presentation referred to comments from leading shippers and their motivation of working towards that goal:

GSF has stated that it supports the ongoing work of the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) to develop a data collection system for measuring fuel usage across shipping, saying that it is an essential first step to creating an international carbon reporting standard.
