Stinking Ships - When Container Ships Pollute the Atmosphere

For years now the Federal Germany Ministry for the Environment has attributed a considerable amount of environment pollution on German coast to ocean liners and container ships. On the beach at Travemuende, in the cruise ship terminals in Hamburg, on ferries in Kiel Harbour the author tracks down the sulphur, nitrogen and other poisonous gases from the ships' funnels. The exhausts from sea vessels are the new air polluters on the coast and also further inland.
