The ship was dubbed the SS Santa due to its load - in 2006 it was headed to the United Kingdom from China loaded with Christmas goods. Luckily for the planet and for our sake, the ship has several features for protecting the environment - it can recycle the exhaust, mixed with fresh air, back into the engine for reuse.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.wackyarchives.com/world-news/emma-m%c3%a6rsk-worlds-largest-container.html"><div align="center"><img src="http://content8.clipmarks.com/blog_cache/www.wackyarchives.com/img/FF17781B-9B5F-4D6A-A893-DC0D42CC4C8A" alt="Danish container EMMA MAERSK" /></div></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.wackyarchives.com/world-news/emma-m%c3%a6rsk-worlds-largest-container.html"> Here are some technical data for the giant: Length - 396.84 m, width - 63.1 m.
