Stand is working in Canada and internationally to clean up the shipping industry. Thousands of freighters, tankers, cargo, and cruise ships pass through Canadian waters every year, leaving trails of water and air pollution behind them. Their impacts are felt by iconic species already at risk, and communities that depend on a healthy ecosystem.

We are calling for Canada to support an urgent ban on the dirtiest fuel on the market (heavy fuel aka bunker oil), pushing for stronger regulations and enforcement of anti-dumping laws, and advocating for an urgent shift away from fossil fuels to cleaner power sources instead.
