> Shipping accounts for up to 3% of global emissions and 10% of transport emissions – roughly the same as aviation
Shipping emissions equalling aviation emissions is surprisingly high, to me.

- kafkaesk 6y agoOT: This website is on a new (to me) level in the cookie wars. After I "change my preferences", which is already hidden behind purposely confusing wording, it has to "save my changed preferences", with a progress counter, that seems to get stuck on 90-something percent for a long time, with a big, handy "cancel" button visible. It's hard to interpret this as anything other than maliciousness.
