Abstract
Contemporary ports are required to operate their ports more environmentally friendly due to increasing awareness and concerns of their stakeholders arising from global warming and climate change issues. Therefore, more ports are investing in environmental facilities to respond to the needs and concerns of their stakeholders. Many countries, regions, and international organizations have adopted more stringent regulations to address air-polluting gases from ships.
