Are Shipping Lines Going Green?
Are Shipping Lines Going Green? Monday September 15, 2008 #spacer{clear:left}#abc #sidebar{margin-top:1.5em}zSB(3,3)When the public thinks of large container ships criss-crossing the world, the first thought that comes to mind is usually one of concern about the pollution these vessels are causing. However, I have read that organizations such as the World Shipping Council (WSC) and the International Maritime Organization (IMO) are now involved in leading efforts to clean up their industry. In a recent article it appears that a number of shipping lines, such as NYK and APL, as well as the WSC and IMO are taking the lead in attempts to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide, sulfur oxide and other vessel pollutants. In a similar effort onshore, the ports at Long Beach, Oakland and Los Angeles are reported to be working to introducing ultra-low sulfur fuel
