Marine shipping contributes to greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution in Canada. Learn more from Clear Seas.
Using coastal and inland waterways to move cargo over short distances can cut greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and could also ease congestion on roads and railways.
Learn more about LNG and marine shipping in Canadian waters. Discover the role of LNG in reducing commercial marine shipping’s contribution to world air pollution and measures to support the safe transport and use of LNG by ships.
Action at the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to regulate emissions from fuel production, and to consider all types of greenhouse gases (GHGs) — not just CO2 — is moving slowly and not receiving much attention. But these regulatory details are probably more important than the headline-grabbing move to target net-zero GHG emissions by 2050. Here’s why.
Is a fossil fuel free future for marine shipping a realistic goal or just a pipe dream?
Efforts to reduce emissions from ships – including stricter regulations about marine fuels’ allowable level of sulphur – are curbing the use of heavy fuel oil (HFO) in the marine shipping industry.
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.
Clear Seas has investigated the environmental impact of different marine fuels to support the marine shipping industry’s transition towards decarbonization.
