Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to review several distinct proposals for market-based measures (MBMs) that are under consideration by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) for greenhouse gases (GHGs). Thus far, some ten distinct MBM proposals have been submitted to the IMO. The paper discusses the general concept of an MBM, the mechanisms used by MBMs, and attempts to discuss the pros and cons of the submitted proposals, according to some specific criteria.
