Taylor, David A.
- Abstract
The article examines the use of fuel cells on ships to reduce air pollution. Los Angeles announced a mandate in September 2005 to cut air pollution from its harbor. S. David Freeman, head of the city's harbor commission, gave a directive to the port managers to start finding ways to reduced air pollution.
