In the latest issue of Cargo Security International, global supply chain security expert Luke Ritter discusses how cargo scanning can be made more "eco friendly." [To read the full article, click here.]
Writes Ritter: "Green cargo scanning can represent a win-win
for management, labour, and the
environment.
"Assuming that passive
scanners emerge that are ultimately
capable of detecting shielded special
nuclear material, management gets
a viable security solut ion with no
associated labour concerns; labour is
provided the opportunity to work side
by side with cargo scanning technology
that does not pose any potential health
hazard; and the environment gets the
benef it of a green technology solution
that does not require radioactive
emissions to be effective."
