International trade is the lifeblood of the global economy and 90 percent of this trade via oceangoing merchant ships. However, these cargo-carrying vessels also being reported as one of the world's most polluting factors. According to a report published in May 2019 in the Financial Times magazine, more than 90,000 ships and crisscrossed ocean average a year. They are burning nearly 2bn barrels of the most massive fuel oil made from the dirtiest dregs of a barrel of crude and carrying oil and gas, chemicals, metals, and other goods. The shipping industry thus contributes to the pollution of the environment through everyday operations.
