Thanks to the crime wave I’ll bet they’re moving toward zero ships as well.

God made the earth for the benefit of people, not the other way around.

Well, they won’t have to worry about taking money from any ballpark renovations or replacements.

The next step: No tugs with diesel engines allowed to operate within the port. No ships allowed to run any engine that uses fossil fuels. Only electrical powered tugs, ships, forklifts, and unloading cranes may be used to offload & move cargo.

No personal cars may use the Port crew parking lots, unless they are EVs.
