About Navigating Zero - Global Trade’s Powerful Wave of Change
There’s no denying we are facing a climate crisis, and all industries must do their part to reach zero emissions. Maritime trade is critical to today’s society but is also responsible for roughly 3% of all greenhouse gas emissions. A future where global trade reaches zero carbon emissions is possible, but how do we actually get there? Navigating Zero - Global Trade’s Powerful Wave of Change is a podcast from ZeroNorth that explores exactly that. In each episode, Lora Jakobsen, Chief Sustainability Officer at Zero North, speaks with global thought leaders inside and outside the shipping industry to build a greener future together. They’ll unpack everything from the economics of decarbonisation in maritime shipping and global trade, to green energy innovations, from sustainable shipping logistics to digitalisation, data sharing and regulation in the industry. Previous guests include leaders building the conversation around a greener future, such as Danny Lang (ex-Vice President of Business Intelligence at Google), Robert Mærsk Uggla (Chairman of the board directors of Maersk, CEO of A.P. Møller Holding) and Rasmus Nordqvist of the EU Parliament. After two successful seasons, Navigating Zero will be returning for Season 3, to spotlight the industry’s most innovative trailblazers – the architects of change who are rebuilding the maritime trade ecosystem from the inside out. Featuring voices like Alexander Saverys, CEO of CMB.Tech, Johannah Christensen from GMF, and Julian Bray, former Editor-in-Chief of TradeWinds, as we explore what transformation really looks like in practice.

Published 19 May 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Yes. So if we can step into like industry context and direction, let's talk a little bit more decarbonization, market pressures, efficiency. Because as you know, the IMO framework faced one year delay last year. And of course, this is coming up in April. We'll be discussing the way forward. So how do you see the IMO's impact on the industry? Will regulation play a big part or will technology actually just outpace it? I think that's really only one sort of position formulated in shipping generally. And that is that if we want to change things, we need regulatory support. If we want to change things in the big way, we need a regulatory pressure or changes in order to do that. […]
