No wonder leftist views are so common in society!
Business Insider has a strong leftist bias.
Steel from old vessels are recycled. So what’s wrong with that
There's money to be made throughout the supply chain and (product) lifecycles.
This is where old outdated cruise ships, massive coal and oil tankers, etc. go. To get taken apart with oxy-acetylene torches and some clever ways that I would not have imagined.
The steel is recycled into Pakistan’s steel industry. That I have never heard of. Though I have heard of India/s. So maybe the recycled steel parts also go to Tata steelworks etc.
The ships get to this Pakistani beach under their own last gasp of diesel power. Though some might be towed there. The primary cutting up is done while they are still 3/4 in the water. This where the workers cut n lop off large steel panels that drop into the beach water.
Really, isn’t it basically the same with used cars, used houses? Used anything is typically bought by people who can’t afford the new shiny thing, or those who prefer the savings over brand new items. Nothing wrong with that. “Dumping” sounds like leftist agitprop. Why not say donating, or offering for sale at a discount? Who says they can’t buy new ones if they can afford it?
The lyrics tell the story pretty clearly, even without the accompanying video.
200 men dismantlesan entire ship in 3 months!?? if I heard and read that right, id say thats pretty impressive...

Uh, maybe because they get away with it.
They are wearing their safety sandals 😜
