“Scrubbers at present justify the continued use of heavy fuel oil (HFO), the dirtiest of all fuels. The shipping industry should get their act together by rapidly moving away from HFO and from fossil fuels in the longer term.”

Thanks to Clean Arctic Alliance for this great infographic, showing how ships with scrubbers pollute and acidify the oceans, harming the entire marine food web.

"Black carbon," or soot, that spews from ships and makes the Arctic Ocean ice melt even faster is an increasing concern in a region beset with many other issues.

Excellent webinar from @cleanarctic.bsky.social about what is at stake at #PPR13.
The most significant fact is that these critical changes in shipping fuel can be made immediately. They are not difficult, no new technology is required. They only need recognition of the science & the harm. #IMO
