As we drive our freeways, I'm always wondering about the logistics of the countless containers I see on rail cars and on trucks. Recently I've been watching an Amazon Prime documentary series on the subject. It blows my mind to hear that one of the larger ships carries 18,000 containers, and that there are 38 million containers around the world, all of which are tracked.
Rotterdam, in the Nederlands, is one of the largest ports/container terminals in the world, but they've been superseded by a couple of terminals in China.
