The United States has issued a stern warning to countries, including those in the Caribbean, ahead of a crucial vote later this month on the International Maritime Organization’s (IMO) proposed Net-Zero Shipping Framework (NZF). The framework aims to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the maritime sector by 2050. However, the US has labeled the initiative as a ‘European-led neocolonial export of global climate regulations’ and vowed to impose economic penalties on nations that support it.
