Description

Explore the complex realities of the global shipbreaking industry with Shipbreaking: Hazards and Liabilities from Springer. This text examines how most redundant ships in the world are scrapped by hand on the beaches of the Indian sub-continent. It addresses the serious environmental and human health concerns that arise when hazardous materials and cargo residues are released into the surrounding ecology during the scrapping process. Since becoming a visible industry in the late 1990s, shipbreaking has faced intense scrutiny. This book tracks how environmental NGOs took action, leading to the ratification of an international treaty designed to address the extensive harm caused to human health and the environment. It provides a detailed look at the labor-intensive and manual nature of the work, where injuries and death are common. This is an essential resource for those studying the legal, environmental, and social impacts of maritime waste management and international maritime law.
