This week's episode of Wavelength is a Hong Kong Special, following Hong Kong Maritime Week in the Chinese city-state this week.

Craig Eason and Huaqing Ma are here to report back on all the hot topics from Hong Kong Maritime Week and also from our TradeWinds Ship Recycling Forum, where scrapping dark-fleet vessels was hotly debated.

Eric Martin is here to wrap up the findings of the investigation into the ship crash in Baltimore that brought down a bridge, and resulted in the loss of lives. The probable cause of the accident was so tiny that investigators might easily have missed it, were it not for help from the ship's builder.

Finally, our newbuilding queens Lucy Hine and Irene Ang are here to discuss their upcoming special report on the shipbuilding sector, which will be published in TradeWinds next week. What has newbuilding business been like this year? Kind of muted, Irene and Lucy agreed.

Host and producer: Holly Birkett.

In this week's episode

The talks on IMO carbon rules go no where as nations call time out and delay a decision for a year. Not the ending anyone thought, but there may be a silver lining.

Also.

While international climate talks stumble, African nations are taking control of their own destiny and a number of countries are following Djibouti's idea of setting their own price on shipping's carbon emissions. Is it a model that can spread further afield?

And we look at the response in the US to China's port tariffs which are in response to the US tariffs
