Excited to welcome 2024 in this new role.
Watch my New Year message and join me in this new era to make maritime safer, more secure and more sustainable.
We're presenting 5 legislative proposals to modernise EU rules on maritime safety and prevent water pollution from ships.
The proposals will equip the EU with tools to support clean and modern shipping and will align with international rules, securing a level-playing field.
Pleased to see the BBC & @BBCTimWhewell diving into our opaque world of international shipping with a 4-part documentary series, Deep Waters. Part 1 looks at the people behind the ships working the UN Black Sea grain corridor. definitely worth a listen.

@YRanaraja Thank-you for the kind comments. Must agree that if the @IMOHQ had rowed back on or delayed the 2020 sulphur limit #IMO2020 I think significant questions would have been raised over the levels of ambition agreed in the 2018 Initial Strategy to reduce GHG emissions from ships
I managed to actually get out and shoot some of the storm last night. Got utterly soaked and it was a right pain trying to keep everything dry and whatnot, but quite like how this turned out... its the boathouse at Lepe, looking over the Solent to the Isle of Wight.
Hopeful news on #WorldOceanDay: @RepLowenthal (@portoflongbeach) to introduce clean shipping bill during Oceans Month🌊
"We have made progress, but communities like mine still suffer under the impacts of shipping... The tech exists to #EndPortPollution."
