Killer-of-Lawyers posted:Still, in the end, the pollution from oil from ships is so minor compared to cars and other industries that it's probably the last place we need to worry about putting reactors in, or worrying about fuel costs. Maybe in 60 years we'll feel differently, but right now it seems like a headache to try and push a nuclear merchant fleet, even if nuclear ships are amazing and cool. I'm not sure about that. The high-sulfur bunker fuel that these ships use means that their sulfur dioxide emissions exceed those from cars. They may produce less pollution per kilogram of cargo per mile (or some other metric, idk) than cars, but shipping is responsible for a massive amount of pollution overall
