SSI Launches Sustainable Shipping Roadmap

The Sustainable Shipping Initiative (SSI) has today launched a set of key milestones and priorities that it believes, if successfully met, will create a sustainable shipping industry by 2040.

The “Roadmap” was developed in line with SSI’s Vision 2040 and Case for Action. It provides a clear overview of the macro environment that a sustainable industry will require by 2040.

The core features that the Roadmap encourages the industry to implement are:

1. Proactively contributing to the responsible governance of the oceans.

2. Earning the reputation of being a trusted and responsible partner in the communities that shipping interacts with.

3. Providing healthy, safe and secure work environments, so that people want to work in shipping, where they can enjoy rewarding careers and achieve their full potential.

4. Instilling real transparency and accountability within the industry to drive performance improvements and enable better, sustainable decision making.

5. Developing financial solutions that reward sustainable performance and enable large scale uptake of innovation, technology, design and operational efficiencies.

6. Changing to a diverse range of energy sources, using resources more efficiently, and responsibly, and dramatically reducing greenhouse gases.

Within each of these areas, regulation, governance, infrastructure, emerging energy sources and critical milestones for achieving 2040 success are highlighted.
