Clear Seas has investigated the environmental impact of different marine fuels to support the marine shipping industry’s transition towards decarbonization.
In this spotlight, we dive into the groundbreaking research of Gavin Woodburn, whose work with the Kwiakah First Nation is redefining scientific research.
Tugs provide an essential service for safe operations in ports and coastal areas. Reducing emissions by going electric contributes to air quality and climate goals.
