The Shipowners’ Club has partnered with ProSea Marine Education to launch a six-week social media campaign addressing sustainability challenges in the maritime sector. This campaign aims to raise awareness about the environmental impact of shipping operations and promote responsible practices among maritime professionals.
Addressing Marine Pollutants
The campaign highlights various pollutants such as oil, chemical cargo residues, garbage, and invasive species from ballast water and hull fouling. These pollutants have detrimental effects on ocean life and can significantly impact the economy, ecology, and society. The campaign educates maritime professionals on the regulations introduced by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and other authorities to mitigate these issues.
Interactive Infographics for Awareness
To summarize the campaign, the Shipowners’ Club and ProSea have created an interactive infographic. This tool brings attention to the pollutants and their impacts on the marine environment while offering advice on how maritime professionals can take personal responsibility to promote sustainability. This infographic serves as an educational resource to enhance understanding and encourage proactive measures.
ProSea Marine Education’s Role
