“…Additionally, the standard encourages CPAs to adopt circular thinking with waste generation and diversion. The creation of value through the efficient reuse of natural capital can also provide cost-saving and revenue-generating measures to CPAs [58]. Monitoring and reducing waste levels has been an area of focus for European ports since 2013; however, the 2019 EU directive requiring ports to have waste disposal facilities for ships entering port has led to this becoming one of the top environmental priorities for ports in recent years [59,60].…”

Canada Port Authorities (CPAs) are federal entities responsible for managing Canadian Ports with local, national, and international strategic importance. Despite their connection to the Government of Canada, the CPAs inconsistently report sustainability performance and are absent from Canada’s Federal Sustainable Development Strategy (FSDS)—a national strategy to operationalize the United Nation’s (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Sustainability initiatives currently used by CPAs only contribute towards attaining 14 of 36 relevant SDG targets, suggesting the need for an additional sustainability framework to achieve the remainder of these targets. This paper proposes a port-specific framework based on disclosures from the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) to fill performance gaps in current sustainability initiatives. Disclosures were selected in an iterative process based on literature and industry best practices. The framework provides a unified approach for both CPAs and policymakers to attain SDG targets relevant to the Canadian port sector and align sustainability performance with Canada’s FSDS.

“…The process of qualitative content analysis can be divided into four steps: material collection, descriptive analysis, category selection, and material evaluation [35]. Subsequently, some researchers use qualitative content analysis in literature reviews to follow the four steps above [37,38]. This approach was used in the literature review in this paper.…”

“…The Web of Science Core Collection is among the most trusted scientific research reference indexes in the world, covering more than 250 sciences, social sciences, and arts and humanities disciplines worldwide, bringing together over 21,000 peer-reviewed, high-quality scholarly journals (https://clarivate.com/webofsciencegroup/ solutions/web-of-science-core-collection/). The limitation of Scopus is its limited access to publications prior to 1996, but the Web of Science Core Collection can make up for this deficiency [38]. (5) The retrieval method: due to the limitation of the title length, some titles may not fully explain the research content of articles, and the abstract can supplement the deficiencies in this regard, so "topic (title, abstract, keywords) retrieval" was used in this study [39].…”

Port City Sustainability: A Review of Its Research Trends

2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

In recent years, with the development of society, the awareness of environmental protection for people has been increasing. While ports promote the economic development and employment levels of port cities, they also have a negative impact on the environment of port cities. The sustainability of port cities is increasingly valued. Port cities face huge challenges, and their sustainability needs to be better understood. The purpose of this article is to review research on the sustainability of port cities. We used content analysis to classify and analyze the existing relevant literature, to learn about the hotspots and deficiencies of past research, and to propose future research directions. We found that port sustainability has become an increasingly important research topic during the past ten years. From the perspective of geographic research areas, European port cities are the hot spots for sustainability research. Regarding research fields, technologies, methods and measures to promote the sustainability of port cities are popular research topics. In terms of research methods, qualitative research plays an important role in the study of port city sustainability. Finally, guidance for future research on port city sustainability is proposed according to the review results.
