Creator's Key Takeaways

the most important area that cruise lines are focusing on to reduce the issue of environmental impact is in the area of carbon emissions

60% of cruise ships today currently use scrubbers and they can reduce sulfur by 98% particle matter by 50%

LNG is the big push at ultra low sulfur or marine oil is the other

most cruise lines have now moved away from using straws either you have to ask for straw or increasingly they're moving to be site level or stores that can be basically combustible

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Try to meet with the environmental officer on a cruise or go on their tours
βœ“Look for cruise lines that use LNG or ultra-low sulfur fuels
βœ“Support cruise lines that are reducing single-use plastics

Cruising and it's impact on the environment is becoming under more focus by cruise passengers, environmental groups and governments around the world. I explore the 5 things that I see and read that cruise lines are doing, and focusing on, to improve cruising impact on the environment. Some of these are about the ships, some about the ports and how passengers and ships interact with all of this. Find out what these are and what difference they should make to cruising and the environment.
