zero carbon

Retailers are coming together to send demand signals for zero-carbon shipping fuels.

Several large retailers are pledging that in less than 20 years, they will ship goods across the ocean without emitting greenhouse gases. Some environmental groups say that’s not soon enough.

FedEx Corp. unveiled plans to reach carbon neutrality across its global delivery network by 2040 with a fully electrified surface transport fleet.

Funding likely to remain elusive for proposal that focuses on zero-carbon initiatives.

Getting to Zero Coalition, which includes Maersk Line, calls for “commercially viable zero-emission vessels” to be deployed on deep sea trade by 2030.

Higher transport costs are a price worth paying to cut carbon emissions, says a U.K. government energy czar. Ship owners beg to differ.
