Maritime traffic on the world’s oceans has increased four-fold over the past 20 years, likely causing more water, air and noise pollution on the open seas, according to a new study quantifying global ship traffic. Ships powered by fossil fuels dump oil, fuel and waste into the water and pump exhaust into the air.

If offshore installation and maintenance costs are to some considerable degree attributable to the burning of fuel oil in vessels, associated pollution is important. As for toxic releases from waste handling, disposal of tailings in relation with mineral resource extraction and disposal of smelter slag are dominant pollution sources.
