In an era where our planet’s resources are increasingly stretched thin, finding sustainable methods for the global transportation of goods becomes imperative. This challenge calls for innovative solutions to redefine the global supply chain to be both resilient and in harmony with environmental sustainability, ensuring that future generations inherit a world where profit and planet coexist.
In this episode, Robert Mærsk Uggla, CEO at A.P. Møller Holding and Chairman of the Board at A.P. Møller - Mærsk, sits down with Lora Jakobsen, Chief Purpose Activist at ZeroNorth, to discuss the essence of trade from a planetary perspective and the critical balance between trade’s necessity and its environmental footprint. They also delve into the energy systems fueling global trade, the environmental implications of maritime transport, and ambitious solutions aimed at fostering a more sustainable and interconnected industry.
The environmental impact of sailing goods across the oceans is an element of global trade that we must address urgently. As Robert highlights, global trade is currently a necessity in our society; so, how can we balance the continuous movement of goods around the planet with the pressing need for sustainability? Regulations are driving some change, but there is also societal pressure by consumers to act responsibly.
The world is in a climate crisis, and all industries must do their part to reach zero emissions. Maritime trade is critical to today’s society but is also responsible for roughly 3% of all greenhouse gases. A future where global trade reaches zero emissions is possible. But how do we actually get there? In this podcast, we’re sitting down with thought leaders to explore the inner workings of global trade, its massive impact on our society, and the obstacles it faces while navigating its way to zero.
