After some time of trying mastodon, I quite like it here and will probably stay so it's maybe time for an introduction:
I'm a student in physical #oceanography in northern germany and mainly here for finding interesting research related content. Second interest is just general #opensource stuff & programming and third is politics.
For the research part I'm mostly a fan of #hydrothermalvents , #oceans , #climate , the #arctic , #antarctic , #glaciers , #seaice but also #ships and more.

The Inside Story of How the Navy Spent Billions on the “Little Crappy Ship”
==

Littoral combat #ships were supposed to launch the #Navy into the future. Instead they broke down across the globe and many of their #weapons never worked.

Now the Navy is getting rid of them. One is less than five years old.

J. M. W. Turner made his second Continental tour in 1817 in the aftermath of the Napoleonic Wars and passed through Dordrecht on his way home. This view, one of Turner’s masterpieces, was painted after his return to London in December 1817 and was exhibited at the Royal Academy in April 1818.

In the late 1800s, when steam ships were replacing sailing cargo ships, one of the last roles for the sailing ships was to carry coal around the world to supply ports where steamships wanted to go. A clean technology was essential to enable the growth of a dirty technology. And even today, fossil fuels aren’t magically just everywhere. A gigantic *** 40% *** of global shipping is just moving fossil fuels. So eliminating fossil fuel also drastically cuts global shipping emissions. #climate #ships

Cruise #ships leave a huge environmental mess. This outlines the impact of cruises from just *one* port in Seattle for 1 year.
- An estimated 700,000 passengers
- Carbon emissions, wastewater discharges, engine and propeller noise, trash
- While ports offer plug in for electricity, most ships don't use this. They opt to ships idle their diesel engines for nine to 11 hours while passengers visit land.
- Each passenger produces a daily average of 30 liters of sewage. For a ship carrying 3,600 people, that amounts to about 400 eight-person hot tubs worth of sewage and over 3,000 hot tubs worth of gray water each day. Ships dump untreated waste water somewhere on the route. The slide show details the impact on marine wildlife. Following rules is voluntary.
- Engine noise interferes with #whales’ ability to echolocate prey for hours each day.
- A large cruise ship creates 2,800 tonnes of CO2 during a 7-day trip. That’s the equivalent to 600 gasoline-powered cars driving for an entire year.
- You can imagine parts of the world where there are even fewer rules. #Cruise ships get to take part of the blame for destroying #coral reefs.
