(4a) In accordance with the UNFCCC Paris agreement, all sectors of the economy must contribute to the reduction of CO2 emissions. To this end, efforts to limit international maritime emissions through the International Maritime Organisation are under way and must be encouraged, with the aim of establishing a clear IMO action plan for climate policy measures to tackle CO2 emissions from shipping at a global level. To this effect, the European Commission and Member States must focus on ensuring the implementation of Council Regulation 2015/757 of 29 April 2015 on the monitoring, reporting and verification of carbon dioxide emissions from maritime transport, which is a prerequisite for any market-based measure, efficiency standard or other measure, whether applied at Union level or globally.
