How the Shipping Sector Must Respond to the @UNEP Overshoot Report

Climate change =more marine heatwaves = algae, barnacles etc ("biofouling") grow faster and thicker on ship hulls.
This increases drag, so to maintain target speeds, engines have to work significantly harder, burning more fuel 🛢️

"Top Trump officials acknowledged to lawmakers during recent classified briefings that they did not plan for the possibility of Iran closing the strait in response to strikes."
cnn.com/2026/03/12/politics/…
Trump opposed climate action in the shipping sector because, he claimed, it would "raise costs" for consumers
He then started a war which sent marine insurance costs up 12X, oil up 10%, and European natural gas up 50%.

Japan completes first methanol ship-to-ship bunkering
Mitsui O.S.K. Lines and four partners have completed Japan’s first ship-to-ship #methanol bunkering operation, transferring domestically produced methanol to a dual-fuel vessel at Yokohama’s Keihin Port. The fuel, derived from waste or plant-based feedstocks, is designed to deliver carbon-neutral lifecycle emissions. The milestone marks a practical step in building Japan’s alternative fuel infrastructure and reinforces methanol’s role in maritime decarbonisation. According to #MarineTraffic data, the bunkering operation started off the coast of Japan on February 6 at 00:21 UTC and concluded five hours later at 05:36 UTC.

🐳After the hugely successful ban on commercial whaling 40 years ago, the biggest threat to whales now is cargo ships hitting them, killing an estimated 20,000 whales each year 🚢🤯
So how are we going to protect whales this time?
Will we ever see a strong stance from @IMOHQ?

The Israeli military has no legal jurisdiction over international waters. Our flotilla poses no harm. We carry vital aid worth over $110,000 USD in medicines, respiratory equipment, and nutritional supplies that were destined for Gaza's starving hospitals. Tag your politicians and media - end Israel's human rights abuses now.
More information to come as we receive it.

液化アンモニア2万3千トンの船間移送に成功！🌱
日本郵船が保有するアンモニア輸送船「BERLIAN EKUATOR」が、スペイン・セウタ沖の公海上で約2万3千トンの液化アンモニアをShip to Ship（STS）方式（船舶に積載された貨物を、船から船へ直接移送する方式 ）で他船へ安全に移送することに成功しました。
アンモニアはCO₂を排出しない次世代クリーンエネルギーとして注目されています。
今回のオペレーションは、港湾設備に縛られない柔軟な供給手段として、アンモニアの国際的な供給網構築に向けた大きな一歩です。
これからも日本郵船は、脱炭素社会に貢献する新しい燃料の安全な海上輸送体制づくりを進めていきます！🌎
