Ports are a vital part of the global economy, connecting the world
through maritime transport networks, promoting international trade,
and supporting global economic growth. However, port communities
are increasingly concerned about the local environmental problems
associated with air pollution from increased port activities.
Efforts are increasingly being made into the reduction of
human-induced changes to the global environment, and one of the
target areas is to reduce air emissions from international
shipping. It appears that management of the port sector has entered
into a new era, not only because environmental concerns are
increasingly being expressed surrounding the ports themselves, but
also because many of the new environmental measures associated with
the shipping trade have to be enforced when ships are in port.
Ports and the Environment assembles research focusing on the
management of ports, and the environmental issues associated with
both the shipping trade and the ports themselves. By examining
contemporary concerns from the perspectives of maritime policy,
port management, and industrial efficiency, this book will be
provide important reference for future research and policy-making
in this area. This book was originally published as a special issue
of Maritime Policy & Management.
