This paper presents the concept of "green port" and gives some examples of practices from four separate port cases that characterize a port as green. It then analyzes some of the environmental and social problems that are popular priorities for ports wishing to pursue sustainable practices and promote themselves as "green". After that, the European Union's Green Deal bill is introduced and a reference is made to the reception it received from the European port community. Finally, the "Clean Truck Program" of the port of Los Angeles is analyzed in depth, its contribution in the reduction of air pollution, the revenues / expenses of the program, and the reasons for its adoption, although the finances have not been profitable.
