European ship recyclers urge EU inclusion of Indian facilities
The European Community Shipowners' Association has urged Parliament to approve two Indian ship recycling facilities for the European List. Inclusion requires meeting standards that are validated and measurable. This is not a bureaucratic formality, it is a practical step toward global accountability in shipbreaking. For context on how international practices are measured, see our coverage of "From observation to action: measuring maturity in ocean practices."
Calibrating EU maritime funding: €30 billion gap in sustainable fuel support identified
A €30 billion gap in sustainable fuel support demands more than incremental fixes. The European Community Shipowners' Association is right to call for tripling the SMAP fund, 110 million ETS allowances alone cannot drive shipping's energy transition. This is a calibration problem, not a funding shortfall. For deeper insight, see our related coverage on how validated ocean intelligence shapes the broader energy transition. Measurable data, not political targets, must steer maritime investment.
