Respatializing Toxic Harm: The Case Against Sacrifice Zones
Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Describing heavily polluted areas as “sacrifice zones” has become commonplace in recent decades, as diverse groups resist their unwitting exposure to destructive and toxic industrial, municipal, and military activities. However, pollutants tend to seep, spill, leak, and drift from wherever they are concentrated, defying any notion of physical ...

Evaluating air emission inventories and indicators from cruise vessels at ports [PDF]
, 2017 This paper provides an estimation of air emissions (CO2, NOX, SOX and PM) released by cruise vessels at the port level. The methodology is based on the Bfull bottom-up^ approach and starts by evaluating the fuel consumed by each vessel on the basis of

World fleet vs. Spanish bunkering. Its impact on ECAS areas [PDF]
, 2013 On December 17 came into force on community standard marine fuels. Bunker prices are expected to increase, recent statistics support this argument and the difference between the high sulphur (HS) and the low sulphur (LS) marine bunkers will be sustained.

Maritime Port Geographies: Materiality, Labour, and Statecraft in Global Crisis Context
Geography Compass, Volume 19, Issue 6, June 2025.ABSTRACT This paper surveys geographical research on ports, and traces three emerging directions: materiality, maritime labour, and statecraft. Amidst the rescaling of global value chains, the fragmentation of production, the rise of cargo‐mobilities and accompanying labour regimes, researchers have emphasised containerisation, the rise of logistical ...

Expert Assessments of Maritime Shipping Decarbonization Pathways by 2030 and 2050
Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract International shipping conveys over 80% of global trade by volume and emits an estimated 3% of the world's greenhouse gases (GHGs). There are many potential pathways and barriers to decarbonizing the diverse and fragmented international shipping sector, with numerous uncertainties.
