Ship breaking
(Redirected from Shipbreaking)
Ship breaking or ship demolition involves breaking up of ships for scrap.
The industry is controversial for its poor environmental record. Most businesses are placed in developing nations where ships, often containing serious pollutants, are dismantled with few environmental precautions like dry docks and labor is done with workers with little protection.
