Meeting targets

A new video highlighting how improved technology can be used to help the global shipping industry meet its ocean sustainability targets has been produced by Canada’s Thordon Bearings. It aims to encourage the shipping industry to adopt, “New Technologies for Greener Shipping” – the IMO’s World Maritime theme for 2022 – as a way of addressing wide-reaching concerns over the sector’s environmental footprint. Focusing on SDG#14 – Life Below Water and eliminating ship source pollution – one of the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) – the short video helps the industry better understand why “there is no place for the oil-lubricated propeller shaft in the 21st century”.
