Description
As stated in the ICOMIA Sustainable Boating Strategy document, a main objective of the organisation is to establish environmental care as a core value of the recreational boating industry. This implies the industry is committed to minimize possible harm to the environment. Although the consequences of spill of oil and fuel, and emissions from fuel evaporation from recreational craft may be minimal in comparison with similar spills caused by for instance ships and ship wrecks leaking e.g. large amounts of crude oil, it is important the boat industry is demonstrating a high level of environment responsibility.
