Maersk receives 4.9 stars out of 5 on environmental reporting

AJOT | December 23, 2020 | Maritime | Liner Shipping

Maersk is not only the largest container carrier in the world but also the shipping company leading the maritime quest for the zero-emission vessel (ZEV) of the 21st century. Maersk's Sustainability Report is one of the shortest (46 pages) of all the reports we reviewed; only COSCO (35 pages) and ONE (26 pages) released shorter ones. The length, however, is secondary: Maersk's report tops the list; one can practically say that it belongs to a different dimension to all the others because it does not only report on its actions during 2019, but it also presents a vision for 2030 and 2050. The report holds the bull by the horns—GHG emissions—from the very beginning, and almost no paragraph is wasted. If the report is so good, why is Gliese Foundation not given 5 stars out of 5 to Maersk? You will find the answer below.
