What are the best practices for reducing port air pollution?

Reducing port air pollution requires a comprehensive approach involving various strategies and best practices. Some of the most effective measures include the use of shore power to eliminate the need for ships to run engines while docked, implementing low-sulfur fuel requirements for ships, promoting the use of cleaner alternative fuels such as liquefied natural gas, and implementing strict emissions standards for port equipment and vehicles. Additionally, optimizing port operations to reduce idling and improve efficiency, investing in green infrastructure such as electric cranes and trucks, and monitoring and enforcing regulations are essential steps in reducing port air pollution and improving air quality in port communities.
