Call to action for shipping decarbonization
In an open letter, Thomas Koniordos, CEO of Yara Marine Technologies reiterates the words of the UN Secretary General, António Guterres, who recently called the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report “a code red for humanity.”
Shortly after, world leaders received the Call to Action for Shipping Decarbonization, a message from more than 150 industry leaders and organizations urging them to take decisive actions to accelerate the transition to zero emissions shipping.
We stand firmly behind this call to action and urge the whole industry to follow and move rapidly on decarbonization. The time to act is now. Our planet is in distress
Mr. Koniordos added tha to keep the world connected sustainably, shipping must reduce its footprint as fast as possible.
Save Our Planet
Our industry has the skillset to create new solutions and the drive to see them through. Now, we at Yara Marine Technologies reinforce our commitment and stand ready to help the industry achieve the necessary green transition
For this reason, Yara launched a new distress signal called “Save Our Planet” (SOP) to encourage the maritime industry and all its stakeholders to face this challenge without further delay.
To state our message, we are reviving the old language of seafaring – the morse code. As sailors once signaled SOS when they found themselves in dire straits, we are now signaling SOP.
