In April of 2023, the Detroit/Wayne County Port Authority, with funding from the State of Michigan, initiated a project to develop a Port of Detroit Decarbonization and Air Quality Improvement Plan. With the help of Tunley Environmental and Southwest Detroit Environmental Vision, the project aims to develop a baseline assessment of the Port of Detroit’s current carbon footprint and chart a course to carbon neutrality by the year 2040.

The Port of Detroit is located in the middle of the connected waterways of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Seaway System. The ability to move heavy cargo on the water within the Great Lakes and through the St. Lawrence Seaway to the Atlantic Ocean and beyond helps build our local economy and creates good-paying jobs. Indeed, these waterways were integral to the development of the automobile industry Detroit.
Detroit was founded in 1701 by French explorer and adventurer Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac. He planted the flag of France at the foot of what is now Griswold Street and secured the geography between the upper and lower Great Lakes. By 1751, the area was known as Petit Cote (Little Coast). Detroit began to expand during the 19th century
Detroit was founded in 1701 by French explorer and adventurer Antoine de la Mothe Cadillac. He planted the flag of France at the foot of what is now Griswold Street and secured the geography between the upper and lower Great Lakes. By 1751, the area was known as Petit Cote (Little Coast). Detroit began to expand during the 19th century with a U.S Settlement around the Great Lakes. By 1920, based on the booming auto industry and immigration, it became a world-class industrial powerhouse and the fourth-largest city in the United States. With all this growth, the Port of Detroit became the largest seaport in Michigan.
