Thank you, Mr. Chair.

My question is for Mr. Gooch or Ms. Gee.

We know that marine shipping is steadily increasing. It's praised as the mode of transportation that generates the least greenhouse gas per kilometre. However, it's undeniable that shipping has repercussions, on biodiversity and elsewhere.

Have you come up with strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and their impact on biodiversity? Do you have a mitigation strategy?
