🌊🔊Green Marine Europe was at two major events on March 13 and 14! 📅 The first, organized by our supporter IFAW at the CMA CGM headquarters (a certified GME company), provided an opportunity to present our environmental certification program — with a focus on our “underwater noise” indicator to key stakeholders 💡Did you know Green Marine Europe is 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗲 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗻𝗼𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗮𝘀 𝗮 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗼𝗿 (KPI)? This issue is crucial to protecting marine biodiversity, which is highly sensitive to the acoustic impact of maritime activity. 🕒 The event also featured discussions on the “𝗝𝘂𝘀𝘁-𝗜𝗻-𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲” concept applied to ships. This approach optimizes ship arrivals by adjusting sailing speed to ensure vessels reach the port precisely when the port infrastructure is ready. 📌 The event also hosted a constructive debate on the International Maritime Organization's Experience Building Phase on underwater noise. This key initiative aims to gather and analyze field data and stakeholder feedback to identify best practices and effective measures to mitigate underwater noise impacts. This collective work paves the way for concrete progress in enhancing the sector’s environmental performance. 📅 The second event, held on March 14 and organized by ACCOBAMS, brought together the same key stakeholders to address another major issue: 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗲𝘁𝗮𝗰𝗲𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗰𝘂𝗹𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆 𝗦𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗦𝗲𝗮 𝗔𝗿𝗲𝗮 (𝗣𝗦𝗦𝗔) 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵𝘄𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗲𝗮𝗻. 🌍 Green Marine Europe actively contributes to implementing the voluntary recommendations linked to this PSSA, which are integrated into level 2 of our underwater noise indicator. We support shipowners in developing ambitious roadmaps to reduce their impact on these iconic species. 🚢 Our participants are on the front line of reducing their ecological footprint by adjusting sailing speeds and fostering environmental innovation. 🤝 This constructive dialogue paves the way for strengthened cooperation with the ACCOBAMS network moving forward. 🙏Thank you to IFAW and ACCOBAMS for these inspiring exchanges! 🔖 With OceanCare (GME supporter), BlueSeeds (GME partner) #GreenMarineEurope #UnderwaterNoise #SustainableShipping #JustInTime #IMO #MarineBiodiversity #MaritimeSustainability #KPI

🌊 Green Marine Europe at the European Shipping Summit, a key event for stakeholders in the European maritime sector! ✅This major event will bring together policymakers, industry leaders, and experts to discuss critical European shipping issues : maritime transport decarbonisation, energy transition, technological innovations, shiprecycling and strengthening environmental regulations. 🤝This is a valuable opportunity for Green Marine Europe to share our ambitious vision for a greener, more responsible, and competitive European maritime industry. 🤝It is also an opportunity to introduce the CirclesOfLife project to potential stakeholders to build our community for this Horizon Europe project. #ESS2025 #MaritimeSustainability #Decarbonisation #Innovation #GreenMarineEurope #SustainableShipping

💰 Do environmental certifications help to finance the environmental transition? 🚢🌱 While Green Marine Europe (GME) is proving its effectiveness in structuring the environmental strategies of maritime companies, one challenge remains: only 30% of General Managers believe that GME facilitates access to finance for the environmental transition. 📊 However, banks and investors are increasingly sensitive to CSR commitments and the transparency of environmental indicators. 💡 Should we better promote environmental certifications to financiers? How can we bring these two worlds closer together? 📣 A new challenge for our certification! Join our movement 🔗 https://urls.fr/FZaNvj Discover the full impact measurement 👉https://urls.fr/pf0LtC
