Trump s'oppose à une taxe carbone sur le transport maritime mais fait face à des résistances

L'administration Trump a menacé les pays favorables à une proposition de taxe carbone sur le transport maritime mondial de restrictions de visa, de droits de douane et de frais portuaires. Malgré cette pression, une courte majorité de nations a soutenu le cadre « Net-Zero » initial lors d'une récente réunion de l'ONU.

Quatre-vingt-dix pour cent du commerce mondial s'effectue par voie maritime, et le secteur représente environ 3 pour cent des émissions mondiales de carbone. L'Organisation maritime internationale devait adopter un plan l'année dernière pour atteindre le zéro émission nette, mais les menaces américaines ont retardé les progrès pendant des mois et favorisé des alternatives plus faibles.
