In this episode of Sea Views, hosts Julia Gosling and Adam Parnell are joined by Chirag Bahri from the International Seafarers Welfare and Assistance Network (ISWAN) and Ian Grainger from The Shipowners’ Club to discuss the real-world impact of decarbonization on those working at sea.
Based on ISWAN’s latest report, the conversation explores how the industry’s push for rapid environmental change — while crucial — is taking a toll on seafarers. From psychological stress to safety concerns, the shift to low-carbon operations brings significant human challenges that demand urgent attention. The guests emphasize the need for inclusive transition strategies that put seafarers at the center of future policy and technology rollouts.
This is a powerful episode that brings the voice of the workforce into the climate conversation — and makes the case for a just, informed, and human-led path to decarbonization.
📌 Topics include:
– Survey findings on seafarer wellbeing and anxiety
– How tech-driven change is reshaping life onboard
– Physical, mental health, and safety concerns
– Criminalization fears under complex regulations
– The risk of alienating seafarers from green transitions
– Recommendations for industry collaboration and support
🎧 Essential listening for shipowners, regulators, crewing agencies, and sustainability advocates committed to decarbonizing responsibly.
Sea Views shines a spotlight on maritime’s most pressing issues, with the experts pushing for safer, smarter practices at sea.
