Green Shipping

Green Shipping refers to the practices and technologies aimed at reducing the environmental impact of maritime transport. This includes efforts to minimize greenhouse gas emissions, reduce air and water pollution, and enhance energy efficiency in shipping operations. Strategies for green shipping may involve the use of alternative fuels, such as LNG (liquefied natural gas), biofuels, or hydrogen, as well as advancements in ship design, cargo management, and propulsion systems. Additionally, green shipping encompasses regulatory measures and international agreements aimed at promoting sustainable practices within the shipping industry, including waste management and the reduction of marine litter. The overarching goal of green shipping is to achieve a more sustainable and eco-friendly maritime sector that balances economic growth with environmental stewardship.
