Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is high on the agenda in the global shipping community and never before has the environmental profile come under more intense scrutiny. Regulations, market requirements and economics are driving environmental developments. Compliance is not simple or cheap, and the impact differs greatly depending on operating areas. Following on from the successful launch of the global maritime environmental congress (gmec) in 2010, a second summit focusing on air pollution management will be held in Hamburg on September 3-4, 2012, on the occasion of SMM, the world’s leading shipbuilding trade fair. Organised by Hamburg Messe und Congress in association with Seatrade, gmec 2012 will bring together leading international speakers from all key maritime sectors, to discuss the challenges the maritime industry faces in developing technology that ensures its activities remain sustainable and environmentally compatible.
