Beschrijving

Bol This book explores in depth the problem of port pollution in West and Central Africa, at the intersection of environmental, legal and economic issues. It highlights the various forms of pollution generated by port activities - ballast water and invasive species, illegal degassing and hydrocarbons, solid and liquid waste, atmospheric emissions, dredging and wastewater discharges - and analyzes their impacts on marine and coastal ecosystems. The author then examines the legal and institutional framework, from international conventions such as MARPOL to regional and national schemes, while highlighting their shortcomings and the challenges of implementation. Finally, the book proposes sustainable governance approaches and innovative solutions for reconciling port competitiveness with respect for environmental standards. It is thus an essential reference for researchers, decision-makers, port managers and sustainable development players wishing to promote integrated, responsible management of African ports.
