Shipping's new green economy
Emission reduction technologies are part of the new green economy and in addition to conserving a diminishing resource (oil) and reducing CO2 and other harmful emissions, this new technology sector offers the opportunity for a new micro economy with truly global potential.
In the UK alone there are opportunities for new jobs to be created: sustainable jobs from sustainable technologies. The sector represents a unique opportunity to create new opportunities in an industry in which the UK was once respected as a global leader.
