Decarbonisation at Sea: The Human Cost
Description
As the maritime industry pushes toward decarbonisation, what does it mean for the people on board?
A new report explores the impact of green fuel transitions on seafarers—and the findings are sobering. While most seafarers support the move to reduce emissions, the reality on board tells a more complex story.
We speak with Chirag Bahri from ISWAN and Ian Grainger from The Shipowners’ Club to unpack what 400 seafarers around the world are saying. From increased workloads to rising anxiety about new fuel technologies and compliance pressures, this episode examines the overlooked human dimension of the shipping industry’s green transition.
