Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator provides an update on recent cruise industry news and personal travel experiences while sailing on the Caribbean Princess. He addresses a news story regarding a New York City council person proposing legislation to ban cruise ships from local ports unless they convert to shore power. The creator notes the controversial nature of the proposal, which compares cruise ship emissions to those of 34,000 tractor trailers and features a child claiming to have asthma due to ships.
