International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) Publications
launches the sixth edition of Shipping and the Environment: A Guide to
Environmental Compliance, offering an expanded and accessible overview of
how shipping relates to environmental protection and global regulation.
Developed for a broad
audience, including shipping companies, seafarers, policymakers, and those new
to the maritime sector, the guide provides a clear introduction to
environmental requirements affecting shipping today, alongside developments
expected in the years ahead. It brings complex information together into a
single, easy-to-understand resource that does not require technical or
regulatory expertise.
The publication
explains what regulations apply, why they matter, and how the landscape is
changing. It supports awareness and preparedness, helping readers understand
emerging expectations and navigate an evolving regulatory environment with
confidence.
The sixth edition
includes expanded content, updated data, and broader coverage of international,
regional, and state-level frameworks, including developments specific to the
United States. It places stronger emphasis on future regulation, particularly
measures expected to take effect from 2028 onwards, and introduces an
Environmental Protection Measures Checklist designed as a practical awareness
tool.
Key topics explored
include new potential regulations on the control of invasive aquatic species,
Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems discharges, MARPOL Annex IV (sewage) and its
associated guidelines, and measures to regulate the carriage of plastic pellets
by sea.
Thomas A Kazakos,
Secretary General of the International Chamber of Shipping, said:
“This edition has been developed to help the industry understand what
environmental regulations are being updated. Expectations are evolving quickly,
and it is essential that shipping professionals understand what applies today
while being aware of what is coming. This guide provides a clear and accessible
overview to support that understanding.”
