Annual Conference 2020 - Getting to Zero-Carbon: A Focus on Existing Ships

IMarEST TV recording from the 6 July 2020 IMarEST Annual Conference Getting to Zero-Carbon: A Focus on Existing Ships, presented by Simon Bullock, Researcher: Shipping and Climate Change at the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, University of Manchester.

Simon will present new research from the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research, which looks at the “committed emissions” from existing ships, and compares this with the available carbon budget for keeping with the Paris Climate Agreement goals. He will set out the implications of this analysis for policy on new and existing ships.

About IMarEST Annual Conference

Building on last year’s inaugural event, the 2020 Annual Conference will feature multiple streams covering many of the hottest topics in the marine realm, from the challenges of decarbonisation and a wider shift to greener, more sustainable ways of operating to developments in the naval sector and the outlook for autonomous systems.

Over the course of two weeks, we will utilise a mixture of live formats – webinars, live debates, 1-2-1 talks with experts, and panel discussions - to provide delegates a flexible and unrivalled opportunity to participate in debates, to learn about subjects outside their day-to-day work, and to make new professional connections.

Although the change to a virtual format was made primarily in response to Covid-19, it will allow international members who ordinarily would be unable to travel to London and attend in person to fully take part in proceedings and bring a global voice to the event.

To maximise interaction and engagement, we encourage all delegates to download our new event app, which will help you keep track of what’s happening when, take part in live polls, access supporting content and network with other participants and sponsors.
