    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; ships; air pollution; SOx emissions; regulation; regulatory design; command and control; standard-setting; international environmental law; regulatory studies;

    Abstract : Emissions of sulphur oxides (SOx) cause considerable global environmental and human health impacts including acidification, climate change, and increased premature deaths in human populations due to serious heart and lung diseases. Although recently revised regulations in MARPOL 73/78 Annex VI are expected to decrease SOx emissions from ships, it is clear that these regulations will need further development. READ MORE
