US pushes global shipping energy efficiency scheme
The United States has proposed launching a global scheme to force all ships to measure and eventually reduce the rate at which they consume energy in a bid to cut emissions of gases blamed for global warming.
From this year, some new ships being built will have to adhere to minimum energy efficiency levels and improve them 10 percent every five years, measures that will have a small bearing on the sector’s output of climate-changing gases.

美国推动全球航运能源效率计划
美国建议发起一个全球性的计划,以迫使所有船舶测算、并最终降低消耗能源的速度,试图削减温室气体排放,减缓全球气候变暖。
从今年开始,一些新的在建船舶,必须坚持最小的能源消耗水平,每5年将效率水平提高10%,测算产出的影响气候变化的气体。
