Abstract

Shipping is responsible for a substantial part of the oceans’ pollution through, for example, the discharge of CO₂, SO_x and NO_x air emissions, the operational and accidental discharge of oil and other hazardous substances into the sea, bio-fouling and the spread of Non-Native Indigenous Species. Sustainable shipping is therefore a priority of the international community. This chapter will examine sustainable shipping in the context of International Law and relations and will explain the principles of flag, coastal and port State jurisdiction, and the actions taken by the relevant international organisations in pursuit of this goal. The chapter will provide a brief overview of the system of Port State Control and will refer to the example of the European Union to demonstrate the regional legislative action that can be taken to consolidate and further international law. A case study of the regulation of the spread of invasive aquatic species through ballast water will show the tensions at play at international level that can act to prevent effective action. Finally, the chapter will provide an exposition of the main liability and compensation regimes.
