PBIP, or Protecting Biodiversity in Ports, is an initiative aimed at reducing the environmental impact of port operations on local ecosystems. Ports are bustling hubs where ships, freight, and infrastructure can unintentionally harm surrounding wildlife and habitats. PBIP promotesbest practices like managing ship ballast water, controlling pollution, and safeguarding natural areas. Its goal is to ensure that ports operate sustainably, balancing economic activity with the preservation of biodiversity. Ultimately, PBIP helps protect marine and coastal ecosystems from damage caused by port activities, supporting long-term ecological health and resilience.
