| Abstract | ||||
| Seaports are a link through shipping networks around the world that promote international trade and support global economic growth. However, they represent a source of environmental pollution through shipping activities and are also linked to climate changes, energy consumption, noise generated and relations with society. Here, decision makers face challenges in how to address the environmental risks associated with ports environmentally, economically and socially. The Green Ports concept can support decision makers to address expected challenges and problems as the Green Concept essentially offers three aspects of operations within ports and development planning including energy conservation, environmental protection and care The idea of seeking to use the concept of green ports to address the extent to which potential environmental threats to Egypt's marine environment have worsened by applying to the port of Damietta, which is an ongoing challenge for future generations and has multiple impacts on our social, cultural and economic values as well as on our natural and physical environment. | ||||
