IMO Action Plan to address marine plastic
litter from ships
IMO?s Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) in 2018 adopted the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) Action Plan to address marine plastic litter from ships, which aims to enhance existing regulations and introduce new supporting measures to reduce marine plastic litter from ships.
What is marine litter?
Plastic materials in all shapes and sizes are omnipresent in our seas and oceans. They break down extremely slowly in the marine environment, taking in excess of 400 years. Marine litter originates from many sources and causes a wide spectrum of environmental, economic, safety, health and cultural impacts. For example, marine litter can cause harm to sea life if ingested or even death if a marine mammal becomes entangled in litter.
Marine litter has been defined by UN Environment (United Nations Environment) as “any persistent, manufactured or processed solid material discarded, disposed of or abandoned in the marine and coastal environment. Marine litter consists of items that have been made or used by people and deliberately discarded into the sea or rivers or on beaches; brought indirectly to the sea with rivers, sewage, storm water or winds; accidentally lost, including material lost at sea in bad weather (fishing gear, cargo); or deliberately left by people on beaches and shores.”
Marine litter, including plastics and microplastics, is known to result from land-based sources in massive quantities but can also originate from ships. Debris particles have been observed in coastal areas, in waters far from anthropogenic pollution sources, in surface waters, in the water column of deep water and in ocean sediments, and from the equator to the poles, including trapped in sea ice.
UN Environment estimates that 15% of marine litter floats on the sea's surface, 15% remains in the water column and 70% rests on the seabed.
According to another study, 5.25 million plastic particles, weighing 268,940 tonnes in total, are currently floating in the world”s oceans.
What problems does marinelitter cause?
In addition to the environmental and health problems posed by marine litter, floating garbage and plastics pose a costly as well as dangerous problem for shipping, as they can be anavigational hazard and become entangled in propellers and rudders.
Another problem requiring urgent remedial action is the massive accumulation of plastics, not only in coastal areas but also in the deep sea.
This litter is harmful to marine life: sea
creatures can become trapped inside containers or
strangled by nets or ropes, and microplastics can
also enter the food chain as they are indigestible
when swallowed.

Maersk, the worlds largest shipping company, says the Suez Canal blockage”s economic fallout will continue into second half of May
Kevin Shalvey
Apr 11, 2021, 9:01 AM
Fallout from the Ever Given's time lodged in the Suez Canal will “ripple” through the economy for the next few weeks or months, according to Maersk, the world's biggest shipping company.
“We will see ripple effects continuing into the second half of May,” Lars Mikael Jensen, head of Maersk's Global Ocean Network, told The Financial Times.
The Ever Given, which is among the world”s largest container ships, was lodged in the canal for six days, effectively closing ons of the world”s most important trade routes.
The Ever Given was operated by the Taiwanbased shipping company Evergreen Group. The ship was freed on March 29.
Maersk predicted knock-on effects from the blockage. In an updated press advisory posted on Thursday, the company said it was pleased to see that the queue waiting at the canal was rapidly diminishing.
“For each day that passes we are getting a clearer picture of what this incident means for our customers,” the company said.
Maersk said about 50 ships had been delayed for about a week because of the blockage. Some of those ships waited on either end of the canal, while others were redirected around the Cape of Good Hope.
The effects of those delays will be felt in ports around the world, the company said. Its advisory warned that delays may vary by location. Busy ports and terminals may not have berths for ships arriving outside their originally scheduled: windows. The company previously said shipping backlog may take months to unravel.
“Even when the canal gets reopened, the ripple effects on global capacity and equipment are significant and the blockage has already triggered a series of further disruptions and backlog in global shipping that could take weeks, possibly months,to unravel,” Maersk said in a statement back when the Ever Given was still lodged in the canal.

Ever Given crew fear joining ranks of seafarers
stranded on ships for years
“For two years Mohammad Aisha has been the lone resident of an abandoned container ship marooned off Egypt in Golf of Suez. If he needs to charge his phone, get drinking water or buy food, he has to row to shore, although he can only stay for two hours at most as the area is a restricted military zone. According to one doctor who examined him, the malnourished sailor has started to exhibit similar symptoms to prisioners held in poor conditions.”

What the Ever Given can tell us about mental health at sea
Captain Lee Clarke from Tapiit Live on one of the
overlooked aspects stemming from last month's Suez
blockage.
Thirty days ago,
a ship named Ever Given was
sailing in relative anonymity. Twenty-nine days
ago, that same ship found itself splashed across the
front cover of every national newspaper from
London to Lima.
In
a matter of hours, the ship and its 25 strong
crew went from highly skilled seafarers to media
targets. In the maelstrom of social media memes,
newspaper cover stories and “special reports”, one
major thing was forgotten, more likely ignored: the
crew”'s mental well-being.
In
a world of social media, everyone is an
expert, and never has that been felt more in the
maritime industry than now.
A frenzy of blame
erupted almost instantly with little or no merit or
fact-checking, as evidenced by the naming of
a
female officer as the Ever Given's Captain,
regardless of the fact she was over 200 miles away
on another vessel.
Being
a seafareris
a stressful job, irrespective
of
a global incident, especially when you factor in
being away from family for extended periods and
working contract to contract with little job security.
You also have to cope with fatigue, extreme weather conditions and intense time pressure placed
upon the crew and its Master by multiple state and
global agencies as well as the ship”s own charter.
So, add to that taking the “blame” for halting $9.6
billion of trade
a day, understandably, stress levels
rise astronomically.
As an industry, mental health appears still to be
very much
a taboo topic. Seafarers are more likely
to be signed off and dismissed for being deemed
“unfit to serve” than they are to receive any form of
support. Whilst onboard, the mood will feel
somewhat supportive with the crew banding
together to keep the ship operating, internally, each
and every seafarer, from deckhand to Master will be
worrying about their reputation and thus, their
employability.
I- __________ my experience as
a Captain, your
crew is your first line II- ____________ defence III- ____________any major incident. As soon as
something goes awry, they burst IV- _____________ action,
they're trained to do so, it's instinctive. I have no
doubt, everyone aboard the Ever Given did
everything V- _________ their power to protect that
ship and avoid
a major incident, but some things are
VI- __________your control. In reality, they will
never be praised for saving the ship, only criticised
for grounding it.
This crew is acutely aware of the issues the
incident has caused and they are reminded of it
every time they open their phone or computer to
read the news or speak to their families, and I feel
for every single one ofthem.
They”re now stuck in an Egyptian lake, further
away from their families, without the ability to
defend themselves with the threat of civil and
criminal charges looming. This downward spiral
will undoubtedly be taking its toll on their mental
health and in the past, there hasn't been much of
a
support system in place to help.
Based on my experience offshore, working for
a
company that provides mental well-being training,
and from all of the feedback, Tapiit has garnered
from its live-streamed mental health awareness
courses, seafarers want and need this support. Yet,
there's
a deep-rooted fear that admitting they're
struggling and asking for help will be the end of
their careers.
Of course, the conversation has advanced
significantly, however, it's still not where it should
be. The harsh reality is, the Ever Given and its crew
will be forgotten about in
a month or two”s time,
but this crew is hurting and will continue to struggle
with the mental health issues caused by the incident
for years to come.

First ship tunnel to be constructed in Norway
Norway plans for
a pioneering construction
project that will facilitate ship transportation. The
plan includes the construction of
a tumnel from
which ships will pass by in order to avoid the Stad
peninsula. The endeavor has been underway since
2017 and was approved by Norway”s Ministry of
Transport and Communications in late February
2021.
The waters in the Stad peninsula are dangerous
since it is an exposed area where navigation is
challenging. Except for the water currents, the
underwater topography creates additional issues
including unpredictable waves which may persist
for
a significant amount of time after
a storm has
passed.
The Norwegian Coastal Administration stated
that plans for alternatives such as the one currently underway have been suggested for years. Even the
Vikings used to drag their ships over the land in
order to avoid the dangerous conditions around the
peninsula. During World War II, the Germans also
made plans to construct
a similar project, however,
according to Terje Andreassen, head of the
Norwegian Coastal Administration, “the war didn”t
last long enough to build it”.
The tunnel will create an alternative, faster
route for ships around the peninsula. It will stretch
for 1700 meters and will be 37 and 36 meters in
height and width, respectively. The construction
will begin from the two sides of the tunnel
(probably using the drilling and blasting
technique). The tunnel face will be excavated in
multiple phases. The top of the tunnel will be
supported by
a layer of shotcrete. Routes from
which the excavated material will be transported
outside ofthe tunnel will also be established.
The two entrances of the tunnel will feature
walls made from the excavated rocks. The interior
of the facility will have led lights that will function
both as an aesthetic and
a navigation tool. The
design aims at making the tunnel fit with the
surrounding nature and not interrupt the natural
environment.
The total cost of the project is expected to
reach $325MM with officials mentioning that
funding has been secured. The construction process
is planned to begin in early 2022 after signing
a
contract in 2021. Officials suggest that the
construction phase will last for 3-4 years, hence, the
tunnel will be completed by 2026.
Norway is
a pioneering country for tunnel
engineering and has more than 1,100 facilities. The
rough terrain and the rockmass conditions (which
are generally good) have favored the establishment
of such projects.
Despite the excitement for the project, not
everyone is in favor of it. According to Knut
Samset, Professor of project management at the
Norwegian University of Science and Technology,
the project is not going to be financially prosperous
due to its high cost, the fact that it will not always
be thefaster route and that modem ships will not be
obliged to use it. “It's
a very expensive thing.
Weather permitting, it's as fast to sail around the
cape as it is to sail into the fjord and through the tunnel. Plus, today”s boats are big enough and safe
enough to handle the choppy waters, which makes
traveling through the tunnel
a moot point.”, Prof.
Samset stated.

First ship tunnel to be constructed in Norway
Norway plans for
a pioneering construction
project that will facilitate ship transportation. The
plan includes the construction of
a tumnel from
which ships will pass by in order to avoid the Stad
peninsula. The endeavor has been underway since
2017 and was approved by Norway”s Ministry of
Transport and Communications in late February
2021.
The waters in the Stad peninsula are dangerous
since it is an exposed area where navigation is
challenging. Except for the water currents, the
underwater topography creates additional issues
including unpredictable waves which may persist
for
a significant amount of time after
a storm has
passed.

Inland cargo ship ran aground, damaged, may break in two, Western Scheldt
Inland cargo ship MVS SOWNENT loaded with soil ran aground at around 1750 UTC April 14 on Western Scheldt near Baalhoek, Netherlands, while sailing downstream. The ship suffered serious damages, hull is breached, understood to get cracks, but there's no immediate danger of breaking. She was refloated and taken below grounding site, to be offloaded and after that, towed to Hansweert.

Um caso de burro
Machado de Assis
Quinta-feira à tarde, pouco mais de três horas,
vi uma coisa tão interessante, que determinei logo
de começar por ela esta crônica. Agora, porém, no
momento de pegar na pena, receio achar no leitor
menor gosto que eu para um espetáculo, que lhe
parecerá vulgar, e porventura torpe. Releve a importância; os gostos não são iguais.
Entre a grade do jardim da Praça Quinze de
Novembro e o lugar onde era o antigo passadiço,
ao pé dos trilhos de bondes, estava um burro
deitado. O lugar não era próprio para remanso de
burros, donde concluí que não estaria deitado, mas
caído. Instantes depois, vimos (eu ia coin run
amigo), vimos o burro levantar a cabeça e meio
corpo. Os ossos furavam-lhe a pele, os olhos meio
mortos fechavam-se de quando em quando. O
infeliz cabeceava, mais tão frouxamente, que
parecia estar próximo do fim.
Diante do animal havia algum capím
espalhado e uma lata com água. Logo, não foi
abandonado inteiramente; alguma piedade houve
no dono ou quern quer que seja que o deixou na
praça, com essa última refeição à vista. Não foi
pequena ação. Se o autor dela é homem que leia
crônicas, e acaso ler esta, receba daqui um aperto
de mão. O burro não comeu do capim, nem bebeu
da água; estava já para outros capins e outras
águas, em campos mais largos e eternos, Meia
dúzia de curiosos tinha parado ao pé do animal. Um deles, menino de dez anos, empunhava uma
vara, e se não sentia o desejo de dar com ela na
anca do burro para espertá-lo, então eu não sei
conhecer meninos, porque ele não estava do lado
do pescoço, mas justamente do lado da anca. Dígase a verdade; não o fez - ao menos enquanto ali
estive, que foram poucos minutos, Esses poucos
minutos, porém, valeram por uma hora ou duas. Se
há justiça na Terra valerão por um século, tal foi a
descoberta que me pareceu fazer, e aqui deixo
recomendada aos estudiosos.
O que me pareceu, é que o burro fazia exame
de consciência. Indiferente aos curiosos, como ao
capim e à água, tinha 110 olhar a expressão dos
meditativos. Era um trabalho interior e profundo.
Este remoque popular por pensar morreu um burro mostra que o fenômeno foi mal entendido dos que
a princípio o viram; o pensamento não é a causa da
morte, a morte é que o torna necessário. Quanto à
matéria do pensamento, não há dúvidas que é o
exame da consciência. Agora, qual foi o exame da
consciência daquele burro, é o que presumo ter lido
no escasso tempo que ali gastei. Sou outro
Champollion, porventura maior; não decifrei
palavras escritas,mas ideias íntimas de criatura que
não podia exprimi-las verbalmente.
E diria o burro consigo:
"Por mais que vasculhe a consciência, não
acho pecado que mereça remorso. Não furtei, não
menti, não matei, não caluniei, não ofendi
nenhuma pessoa. Em toda a minha vida, se dei três
coices, foi o mais, isso mesmo antes haver
aprendido maneiras de cidade e de saber o destino
do verdadeiro burro, que é apanhar e calar. Quando
ao zurro, usei dele como linguagem. Ultimamente
é que percebi que me não entendiam, e continuei a
zurrar por ser costume velho, não com ideia de
agravar ninguém. Nunca dei com homem no chão. Quando passei do tílburi ao bonde, houve algumas
vezes homem morto ou pisado na rua, mas a prova
de que a culpa não era minha, é que nunca segui o
cocheiro na fuga; deixava-me estar aguardando
autoridade."
"Passando à ordem mais elevada de ações,
não acho em mim a menor lembrança de haver
pensado sequer na perturbação da paz pública. Além de ser a minha índole contrária a arruaças, a
própria reflexão me diz que, não havendo nenhuma
revolução declarado os direitos do burro, tais
direitos não existem. Nenhum golpe de estado foi
dado em favor dele; nenhuma coroa os obrigou.
Monarquia, democracia, oligarquia, nenhuma
forma de governo, teve em conta os interesses da
minha espécie. Qualquer que seja o regime, ronca o
pau. O pau é a minha instituição um pouco
temperada pela teima que é, ein resumo, o meu
único defeito. Quando não teimava, mordia o freio
dando assim um bonito exemplo de submissão e
conf ormidade. Nunca perguntei por sóis nem
chuvas; bastava sentir o freguês no tílburi ou o
apito do bonde, para sair logo. Até aqui os males
que não fiz; vejamos os bens que pratiquei."
''A mais de uma aventura amorosa terei
servido, levando depressa o tílburi e o namorado à
casa da namorada - ou simplesmente empacando
em lugar onde o moço que ia ao bonde podia mirar
a moça que estava na janela. Não poucos devedores terei conduzido para longe de um credor
importuno. Ensinei filosofia a muita gente, esta
filosofia que consiste na gravidade do porte e na
quietação dos sentidos. Quando algum homem,
desses que chamam patuscas, queria fazer rir os
amigos, fui sempre em auxílio deles, deixando que
me dessem tapas e punhadas na cara. Em fim...
Não percebi o resto, e fui andando, não
menos alvoroçado que pesaroso. Contente da
descoberta, não podia furtar-me à tristeza de ver
que um burro tão bom pensador ia morrer. A
consideração, porém, de que todos os burros
devem ter os mesmos dotes principais, fez-me ver
que os que ficavam não seriam menos exemplares
do que esse. Por que se não investigará mais
profundamente o moral do burro? Da abelha já se
escreveu que é superior ao homem, e da formiga
também, coletivamente falando, isto é, que as suas
instituições políticas são superiores às nossas, mais
racionais. Por que não sucederá o mesmo ao burro,
que é maior?
Sexta-feira, passando pela Praça Quinze de
Novembro, achei o animal já morto.
Dois meninos, parados, contemplavam o
cadáver, espetáculo repugnante; mas a infância,
corno a ciência, é curiosa sem asco. De tarde já não
havia cadáver nem nada. Assim passam os
trabalhos deste inundo. Sem exagerar. o mérito do
finado, força é dizer que, se ele não inventou a
pólvora, também não inventou a dinamite. Já é
alguma coisa neste final de século. Requiescat in
pace.
