The Executive Master in Future Energy (EMFE) programme at ESCP Business School is proud to present a Masterclass on 'Decarbonisation and the Environmental Impact of the Global Shipping Industry', delving into the challenges of reducing the shipping industry's significant environmental footprint. With the industry accounting for about 3% of global CO2 emissions and facing a potential 50% increase in emissions by 2050, as reported by Lu et al. (2023), this masterclass examines the ambitious targets set by the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) to halve emissions by 2050 and explores the critical steps needed for the industry to adapt and thrive in a decarbonizing world. The session also offers a glimpse into the comprehensive content and analytical depth that the EMFE programme provides. This masterclass poses a critical question reflecting the industry's significance: "No shipping, no shopping" - what changes are needed for this vital industry's sustainable future? We invite you to join this engaging masterclass, featuring panellists George Horsington, Head of Offshore at ABC Maritime, and Brendan Barratt, Director, Strategic Advisory Mace Group, with moderation by ESCP Professor and EMFE Global Academic Director Spiros Papaefthimiou.
