Скачать или смотреть Panama Canal Authority Administrator discusses climate change impacts

The Panama Canal is one of the world's most important waterways, connecting Asia with the East Coast of the Americas. However, climate change is having a significant impact on the canal, forcing it to reduce the number of daily transits allowed and impose draught restrictions.

In this episode of the #SeatradeMaritimePodcast, Marcus Hand, Editor of Seatrade Maritime, speaks with Panama Canal Authority Administrator Ricaurte Vásquez Morales about the impact of #climatechange on the canal and the steps the authority is taking to mitigate its effects.

You will hear from Ricaurte Vásquez about the measures the Panama Canal Authority has taken to keep the canal operating in the face of freshwater shortages. He explains about the impact on different vessel types, the solutions available, and the information shipowners can use to make decisions on transits.

Later in the episode, we delve into how the Administration is looking to use technology and potential new water sources to address the impact of climate change over the longer term.
