United Nations International Maritime Organization carbon tax implementation 結果共1筆

The United Nations International Maritime Organization (IMO) is contemplating a greenhouse gas emission tax on the maritime industry from 2027, potentially marking the first global sector to face a mandatory carbon fee. This tax aims to address the industry’s significant contribution to global emissions and could drive the adoption of eco-friendly practices among shipowners. The potential revenue of US$100 billion annually may also aid developing nations in combating climate change. Despite uncertainties surrounding the tax’s implementation and impact, IMO Secretary-General Arsenio Dominguez is resolute about establishing a pricing mechanism.
