Shipping

THE US is working with Norway, Denmark and other countries to develop zero emissions fuel options for ships as part of a push to de-carbonise the industry, officials involved said.

With about 90% of world trade transported by sea, global shipping accounts for nearly 3% of the world's CO2 emissions.

In April, US climate envoy John Kerry said Washington would join an international effort to achieve zero emissions in the global shipping industry by 2050.
