Contracting for Carbon Free Shipping – Book launch and mini conference

Carbon-Free Shipping and Shipping Carbon

New regulatory measures on carbon reduction both internationally and in the EU require action by industry to cut emissions. Contracting is a central tool for achieving this goal.

In celebration of our new book: Carbon Free Shipping and shipping carbon – contracts in context, edited by Stephen Girvin and Vibe Ulfbeck (https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/carbonfree-shipping-and-shipping-carbon-9781509972630/) we invite you to join us for a mini-conference at KU, Faculty of Law on November 18th at 9-13. The mini conference will feature presentations of some of the contributions in the book and presentations by practitioners on the practical handling of the new regulatory requirements.
