US sinks international plan to cut shipping emmissions - theold - 19-10-2025
An international vote to approve a global plan to cut maritime emissions was postponed for a year Friday, marking a win for the United States, which opposed the carbon-cutting scheme amid sharp divisions among member countries.
But a vote on whether to formally approve the deal was cancelled on Friday until next year after US President Donald Trump threatened sanctions against countries backing the plan.
Washington threatened to impose sanctions, visa restrictions and port levies on those supporting the Net Zero Framework (NZF), the first global carbon-pricing system.
