Our activities
Our committee affords a forum for discussion, exchange of experiences and good practices, and sharing knowledge. It helps members in their efforts towards achieving environmental sustainability through supporting the membership in:
- Working with clients and contractors towards a level playing field in environmental sustainability requirements
- Minimising carbon footprints
- Reducing emissions of all kinds
- Reducing or eliminating plastic waste
Guidance documents, technical reports, and regular bulletins aid members in meeting environmental sustainability requirements and in continuing to improve their environmental, energy and climate related performance. We work in conjunction with the Marine Policy & Regulatory Affairs and Marine Renewable Energy Committees.
IMCA’s Recommended Code of Practice on Environmental Sustainability was published in May 2021
