The shipping industry accounts for around 3% of the world's total carbon emissions. This figure will grow to 15% by 2050 if alternative fuels and clean technologies are not adopted today. Some say the world is sea blind and that the polluting transport industry is a blind spot for climate policies and decision-makers. At GoodFuels, we are changing this mindset. Our mission is to accelerate the energy transition and create a better world by developing and supplying truly sustainable alternative solutions to fossil fuels for the global maritime industry and the road transport sector. With GoodShipping and GoodZero, GoodFuels is part of a growing international team of people whom all feel passionate about this mission.
