“In externalising the social and environmental cost of shipping to the high seas, the shipping industry mirrors the collective action problem that is the climate change to which it contributes. Every country wants to connect its economy across the oceans, but few feel responsible for the social and environmental impacts of shipping, or indeed climate change.”
Christiaan De Beukelaer, Trade Winds: A Voyage to a Sustainable Future for Shipping

“L'automobile coûte chaque année dix fois plus d'hommes aux U.S.A. que la guerre du Vietnam, autant qu'une guerre mondiale ; et comme la guerre, la bagnole tue d'abord les jeunes : dans les pays développés, elle est la première cause de mortalité entre dix-huit et trente ans. Imagine-t-on la S.N.C.F. ou Air-France présentant un bilan annuel, sans cesse accru, de douze mille tués et cent mille blessés ? Plus personne n'oserait prendre le train ou l'avion, et le peuple indigné mettrait le feu au ministère des Transports.”
Bernard Charbonneau, L'Hommauto
