Southampton was the most polluted UK port for nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from shipping activities in 2022, with 723 vessels producing an estimated 1.3 million kilograms (kg). This was equivalent to the NOx emissions produced by 93,000 cars. Although cruise ships represented just six percent of vessels calling at the Port of Southampton in 2022, they were responsible for more than 50 percent of NOx emissions from shipping activities that year.
