Value proposition
Green Marine Europe is a voluntary environmental certification program for the European maritime industry
In 2019, the Surfrider Foundation Europe’s project team collaborated with Green Marine’s team to coordinate the adaptation of Green Marine’s North American environmental certification program in Europe. The key players in this adaptation consist of a group of European shipping companies and maritime transportation stakeholders, thereby creating a mechanism that supports them in improving their environmental performance on a European scale.
The Green Marine Europe program works in the same way as the North American one. When launched in the spring of 2020, it only involved ship owners.
In order to obtain the Green Marine label, candidates must annually measure their environmental performance using the program’s self-assessment guides, then submit their results to an external verification that is carried out by an independent verifier accredited by Green Marine Europe, as well as agree to publish their individual results.

Green Marine Europe (GME) is a non-profit NGO committed to reducing the environmental footprint of maritime transport. Since its launch in 2020 under license from Green Marine, in coordination with Surfrider Foundation Europe, it has adapted 11 environmental performance indicators for European shipowners and shipyards, thus contributing to the achievement of 11 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), including SDG 14.
Now an independent legal entity since summer 2024, under the 1901 law and autonomous from Surfrider Foundation Europe, GME is the European branch of Green Marine International.
To receive their certification, participants must annually measure their environmental performance using the environmental program's self-assessment guides, submit their results to an external audit by an independent auditor accredited by Green Marine Europe, and agree to publish their results.
