ACCELERATE THE ENERGY TRANSITION TO FIGHT CLIMATE CHANGE CMA CGM supports public authorities willingness to accelerate the agenda towards a low carbon economy, in order to meet the 1.5C ° target. In this context, the International Maritime Organization s (IMO) strategy
to reduce ships greenhouse gas emissions, as well as the European Union Green Deal are critical for
the shipping industry. CMA CGM intends to provide an active contribution to the design and delivery of the climate agenda and resulting regulations under these frameworks. Overall, the Group calls for measures to reduce the negative externalities through market- based instruments. This would enable the shipping industry to continue ability to drive global trade flow, according
to responsible criteria. In this perspective, CMA CGM views the adoption of a global shipping
ETS system as a critical long-term goal. It involves an enhanced consistency between agendas and European regional standards IMO international standards. CMA CGM already has a strong track record in proactively addressing climate change. Wishing to play its part in addressing this challenge, the Group has strongly committed to reduce its carbon footprint for several years.
