New SHIP Technologies to Decrease Emmissions and Improve Efficiencies

Did you realize??...
"Shipping is by far the biggest transport polluter in the world emitting as much as 260 time more SOx than all the worlds cars put together"

"One ship pollutes as much as 50 million cars"


Dave Culp has just referenced an EXTREMELY interesting paper over on another forum, and it is presented in a graphical form. I felt compelled to make this forum discussion aware of it.
