The port crisis poses challenges to the environment

Episode 39


The major shipping ports across the nation have made news for congestion and persistent bottlenecks. The disruptions impact the entire supply-chain, slowing deliveries, and contributing to higher prices. The backlog has captured the attention of all levels of government – including the White House. President Biden issued an executive order directing federal agencies to address the problems, strengthen critical supply chains, and form a supply-chain task force to work with the ports. Still, slower deliveries and surging prices are not the only adverse consequences. Extraordinary demands on ports also pose significant challenges to the environment.
