The European Commission and the Italian Shipping Line 'Costa Crociere' on 3 November 2005 launched a new way of monitoring man-made pollution of the atmosphere - essential to improving understanding of climate change. An automatic air pollution monitoring station was placed on board the Ship 'Costa Fortuna' which was to follow a regular route in the western Mediterranean basin during Spring, Summer and Autumn. The monitoring station was to provide new information on over-sea measurements, which are rarely taken, and improve current understanding of the effects of pollution on climate change. |
