Taking a lead in being green

摘要

A full set of green credentials are today a goal of forward-thinking shipowners worldwide but it must be unique for a company to make public and actively promote its efforts in this field. Credit must therefore be given to Wallenius Wilhelmsen, the joint Swedish/Norwegian ro-ro operator specialising in 'global ocean transportation and logistics management' - carrying export cars, lorries, and all types of heavy rolling cargoes, and which also carries on its payroll a vice president for the environment, Lena Blomqvist. For the year 2005, this enterprising consortium published a special report on its environmental activities.
