And global warming propaganda in 1,2,3,4 ....

It never stop with these environmental douche bags.

The map is interesting but the butt boy narrating is annoying

Very cool.

Spoiler Alert: The video blames Global Warming on all these ships although, as usual, it doesn't get around to telling us how much CO2 has increased in the atmosphere.

Very cool, especially when broken down by cargo type.

Interesting that China has the world’s busiest ports. That sure is a lot of Capitalism being participated in by the world’s largest Communist country.

When my son was in the Navy one of his last assignments was tracking ships on a map such as this. All ships file a port plan, if they veer from that plan they are contacted. This was in 2004.

Neat but 2012? Why can’t these things be any more current?

I expected to see more ships grouped together based on their direction, in tune with ocean currents.

Did you notice the four or so vessels on the rivers in Siberia? I wonder what that is all about? Surprised to see them even tracked.

Very interesting but it’s too had to throw in the plug for global warming.

Very fascinating, except for the global warming plug.
What does he suggest we do instead, stop global commerce?
Despite the tonnage, shipping by boat is very economical, otherwise we could not get fruits and toys from the other side of the planet as cheaply as we do.
Very good example of economy of scale.
