This Strategy contains the ambition to peak GHG emissions from international shipping as soon as possible and to reduce the total annual GHG emissions by at least 50% by 2050 compared to 2008 whilst pursuing efforts towards phasing them out. The UK is a leading voice at the IMO and this year will be calling for measures to be adopted through the IMO as soon as possible to ensure the targets of the Strategy are delivered.<\/p>"}

It sends a clear signal to the maritime sector that the move to zero emissions technology is imminent. The Government is now working in the IMO to determine what practical and technical approaches need to be taken globally in order to reach the emissions reduction targets.<\/p> <\/p> In aviation, the UK was equally instrumental in reaching a ground-breaking agreement at the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Assembly in 2016 on a global carbon offsetting scheme, known as the Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation (CORSIA). This is the first worldwide scheme to address carbon emissions in any single sector and is set to commence from 2021.<\/p> <\/p> CORSIA contributes to ICAO\u2019s ambition to decouple growth in flights from growth in emissions by achieving carbon neutral growth in the international aviation sector from 2020.<\/p> <\/p> To achieve this goal, ICAO has identified a basket of measures, which also includes aircraft technologies, operational improvements and the use of sustainable alternative fuels. The UK continues to play a leading role in ICAO\u2019s environmental work, including all areas of the \u2018basket of measures\u2019.<\/p> <\/p> The Government is currently developing its aviation and maritime strategies, which will ensure continued progress and that set out a framework for how these modes will contribute fairly to action on climate change, including the UK\u2019s domestic and international obligations.<\/p> <\/p>"}
