Our commitment goes on - the 2023 World Maritime theme! The United Nations published that the 2023 theme highlights the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (MARPOL), which covers the prevention of pollution of the marine environment by ships from operational or accidental causes. The focus on environmental impact and sustainability is evermore present in the maritime industry today. As we continue to move toward green initiatives, we hope to play a role in keeping the planet healthy. On World Maritime Day, we thank our team, partners, customers, stakeholders, seafarers, longshoremen, and all maritime professionals for your work in the industry and focus on sustainability. According to the United Nations, "International shipping transports more than 80 percent of global trade to peoples and communities all over the world." #worldmaritimeday #maritimeindustry #WMD #maritime #sustainability
