Celebrating World Maritime Day
On this World Maritime Day, we reflect on the critical role shipping plays in delivering our Shrinkers! from Shenzhen to Australia and soon to Europe. Shipping is the most efficient and eco-friendly method for global transport, enabling over 80% of worldwide trade. It’s fantastic that global agreements like MARPOL exist, ensuring shipping practices are safe and environmentally responsible. These principles help protect our oceans and support the sustainable future we all strive for. #WorldMaritimeDay #Sustainability #WhollyShrink #Savetheplanet #Savetheoceans.
MARPOL is a global agreement that helps protect our oceans from pollution caused by ships. It stands for the “Marine Pollution” treaty. The rules in MARPOL make sure ships don’t dump harmful things like oil, chemicals, or trash into the sea. This keeps the water cleaner and safer for marine life and people.
