Abstract

The International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships was introduced in 2009 to address the concerns raised by the dangerous practices of “shipbreaking”; the dismantling of old ships releases hazardous materials into the ocean and onto coastlines. The convention was also intended to create a framework for the sustainable recycling of ships’ materials such as steel and iron.
