At least he has reduced the enormous amounts of pollution created by all those ships normally?

I don’t know, I’m just trying to find a sliver of hope somewhere.

Container ships are the most economical and least polluting way to ship goods per ton

I thought trains were the most efficient way to ship goods, though I’ll concede that trains are notoriously bad at crossing oceans.

Especially if wind power becomes a viable alternative (again?)

Doesn’t mean it’s still okay for the environment. Those ships need to be transitioned to nuclear.

So you are saying container ships do not cause massive pollution?

No, they are saying that any other way to transport those goods would cause more pollution.

DominusOfMegadeus@sh.itjust.works · 5 个月前

So you are saying that by NOT transporting these goods whatsoever, the environment is harmed more?
