EMSA in support of the EU environmental agenda

Sustainability is one of the five strategic priorities of EMSA’s work. With its technical expertise at the side of the European Commission and the EU Member States, the Agency contributes to the European green agenda for maritime transport by strengthening the EU capacity to protect the marine environment, manage climate change and respond to new environmental challenges. The European Green Deal and the “Fit for 55” Package include elements that will affect shipping. Coordinated, committed and concrete actions will be needed to meet the ambitious objective of carbon neutrality in Europe by 2050.
