ZeroNorth’s Lora Jakobsen and Richard Meade of Lloyd’s List take you through some of the foundational concepts of maritime trade. Navigating Zero’s goal is to unravel the complexities of maritime trade and the shipping industry, exploring the actions logistics companies can take to reach zero emissions. To do this, we need to start at the beginning.
In this episode, we're sitting down with Richard Meade, editor-in-chief of Lloyd's List. We’ll discuss how he would define global trade and what aspects he thinks are most important in moving to a sustainable future. Lloyd’s List is part of the data and analytics firm Lloyd’s List Intelligence, providing shipping news and updates since 1753.
Richard is an editorial business leader and an award-winning journalist. In his written work and as the host of the Lloyd's List Shipping Podcast, he's regularly engaged in the debate around sustainability and shipping. Richard offers a realistic view of how the maritime trade and logistics industry is progressing.
In this conversation, Richard gives his definition of global trade. He breaks down the complexities of regulation and regulatory bodies in the shipping industry and explores the complex, darker side of maritime trade.
There’s no denying we are facing a climate crisis, and all industries must do their part of decarbonisation to reach zero emissions. Maritime trade is critical to today’s society but is also responsible for roughly 3% of all greenhouse gas emissions. A future where global trade reaches zero carbon emissions is possible, but how do we get there?
In this podcast, we're sitting down with thought leaders to explore the inner workings of global trade and maritime shipping, their massive impact on our society, and the obstacles they face while navigating their way to zero carbon emissions.
