Short Wave: Can Global Shipping Go Zero Carbon?

A lot of the stuff we buy in the U.S. comes by ship, ships that use a particularly dirty kind of fuel.

Now a big shipping company says it wants to go zero carbon. Climate reporter Becky Hersher tells us how some old tech might play a role and where that tech falls short.

This episode was produced by Rebecca Ramirez and edited by Viet Le.
