Around 90,000 marine vessels carry out over 90% of the global trade through oceans. Ships, like all fossil fuel powered modes of transportation, emit carbon dioxide and, therefore, contribute considerably towards global emissions and climate change. More than 3% of the carbon dioxide emissions worldwide are caused by the shipping industry, which continues to grow rapidly to date [1]. If the global shipping industry were considered a country, it would be the sixth largest contributor of greenhouse gas emissions. Only the U.S., China, Russia, India, and Japan emit more CO2 than the entire global maritime fleet [1].
