Chimneys, ships and Kakinada

The famous chimney effect has struck again. Now in Kakinada on the shores of India. Since the now world wide ban on single hull ships there are a lot of ships that will be dismantled. Of course the EU which was first with the ban have not planned to take care of these ships. In many cases that will unfortunately be in Asia. This will have a negative effect on the environment and thus also on the possibility for many to maintain their livelyhood. These single hull ships contain a lot of toxic waste that will be released straight in to the surrounding environment.

This is of course not tolerable.
Do something.
Now.

Here is an aid and a lot of background info:
Shipwrecks soon on Kakinada beach
