SUMMARY:Webinar: Arctic Marine Operations and Shipping: Green Initiatives and Challenges
LOCATION:Online
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to attend a joint webinar, "Arctic Marine Operations and Ship
 ping: Green Initiatives and Challenges," organized by the Academia Europaea
  Bergen Knowledge Hub (AE-Bergen), Pacific Environment, University of Berge
 n, and Arctic Frontiers. The webinar will be held on the Arctic Frontiers d
 igital platform at 18:00-20:00 GMT+2 | 08:00-10:00 AKDT on 7 April 2021.\n"
 Major economies aim to be carbon neutral by 2050. Such an ambition implies 
 an almost full transition away from using fossil fuels to power the transpo
 rt sector, including maritime transport. How will the maritime Arctic be in
 fluenced by global responses to climate change? The webinar addresses marit
 ime transport in the Arctic and will provide insights into a complex set of
  issues: the Arctic's policy framework for marine safety and environmental 
 protection; indigenous and conservation perspectives; green ship technology
 ; marine infrastructure; and what measures are needed to make Arctic marine
  operations and shipping more sustainable."\nChair: \nJim Gamble, Arctic Pr
